                                           HE KNEW HER BY NAME PART XIV

In obedience to Jesus' words Mary Magdalene goes and finds the other disciples as you can read              in John 20:18 

Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: "I have seen the Lord," she said. And she told them that He had said these things to her.

What a story Mary Magdalene has to tell the disciples for not only did she have the privilege of seeing two angels, she had the privilege of seeing the Lord. And it was not a hoax. No, it really was the Lord she had seen for He had called her by her name as only He could and she had touched Him so she knew she had not been dreaming. She explains as well that the Lord has gone to the Father to tell Him His task has been accomplished and that is why He is not here in Person. Mary Magdalene's joy is restored to her: Her Lord has come back to life. It is true, He has gone away again and she does not know when she will see Him again. But this one thing she knows: He is alive and because of Him she too will live.
