Looking for heaven? Look for love.

On Easter Sunday, the stone that had been rolled away revealed that Jesus\u2019 tomb was empty. He had gotten out of his grave. And when he did, the blessings he had won got out with him. These blessings are now ours forever. The stone keeping his victory in can never be put back. This week we see how love got out with him. With his death on the cross, Jesus had demonstrated a new kind of love unique and foreign in our world: a love that sacrifices for one\u2019s enemies and repays evil with good. Though it appeared this love had been defeated when Jesus\u2019 body was placed in the tomb, Jesus\u2019 resurrection proved what the apostle would later write: Love never fails.
