14 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.” 16 Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to him in Hebrew, “Rabbouni!” (which means Teacher).
Prayer Focus: Mary is looking for Jesus, but as we discover so many times in scripture it really is Jesus who finds Mary. When he speaks her name, she recognizes him. On this holy Saturday, so often a day of quiet contemplation or bursting energy with Easter Egg Hunts, I encourage you to listen for the ways Christ is calling your name. Even if you do not recognize him, he knows your name and knows that Sunday is coming.
