They discovered Jesus' body was gone and thought they had taken Him. The angels told them and they did not understand. Understanding what Christ is doing among us requires our eyes to be opened by the Lord. This is the work of the Holy Spirit. When Jesus allowed their minds to be opened to spiritual things, they began to understand. It doesn't matter if we just spent the last Three years with our Lord, we must be open to what He is doing to see Him at work.
Yesterday Oswald Chambers in My Utmost for His Highest shared shared this with us:
"We should be so one with God that we don’t need to ask continually for guidance. Sanctification means that we are made the children of God. A child’s life is normally obedient, until he chooses disobedience. But as soon as he chooses to disobey, an inherent inner conflict is produced. On the spiritual level, inner conflict is the warning of the Spirit of God. When He warns us in this way, we must stop at once and be renewed in the spirit of our mind to discern God’s will (see Romans 12:2 ). If we are born again by the Spirit of God, our devotion to Him is hindered, or even stopped, by continually asking Him to guide us here and there. ". . . the Lord led me . . ." and on looking back we see the presence of an amazing design. If we are born of God we will see His guiding hand and give Him the credit."
Don't worry about what you did yesterday or what you are going to do tomorrow.
Make a concerted effort to see where God is working today and join Him in that. There is where you will see the Lord working.
