"For he who is least among you all--he is the greatest." (Luke 9:48)
I heard this story on the radio today. A young boy was allergic to bee stings and when he saw a bee fly near him he became increasingly frightened. His father reached out and crushed the bee with his hand. However the bee still fly away and the boy again became scared. His father opened his hand and showed his son that he had no need to fear the bee as the stinger was on his hand.
In the same way Jesus has taken the pain, the suffering, and death in order that we may no longer fear death. He has conquered death by dieing and because he did not deserve death he rose again in three days. We have the opportunity to live eternally with Jesus forever.
He has risen!
