Changed?

 

I preached last Sunday.  The lectionary readings for John 20:19-31 and Acts 4:32-35.

The John passage tells of Jesus coming to the room where the disciples are, then doing the same thing when Thomas is in the room.  The Acts passage tells of the early church, sharing all they had so that no one was in need.

It struck me that for the people of the early church to have such a fearless and generous spirit, there must have been something transforming about the resurrection of Jesus.  

It reminds me of something someone's father once said - you can't help but be changed when you see Jesus.

Where have you seen Jesus lately? Were you changed?
