From unnatural darkness
in the midst of loss and grief
from hell's silence came a heartbeat
light shattered dark into new belief

Born again in resurrection
Jesus simply stepped through the grave
and walked in surrounding gardens
the risen Saviour alive to save

In a whisper of salvation
Christ approached Mary near the tomb
Eyes not seeing her saviour
His words forever changed her gloom.

In the doubts of disciples meeting
In the fear and in the pain
Jesus appeared to show all
God’s kingdom would now reign.

From unnatural darkness
in a world of hurt and questions
Jesus now also asks us
can my power bring new directions?

Starting Thoughts: Simple moments in a garden against a backdrop of the powerful resurrection. Often we don't hear God's voice or recognise him in our life as we are focused on grief, pain, expectations of what God should be doing or can't do - and then He meets us!
