Empty Room, New Beginning ❤️
He calls you by name too! ✨
Scripture For Today: "Jesus said to her, 'Mary!' She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, 'Rabboni!' (which means 'Teacher')."
You walk into the room and it's not what you expected.
The college dorm is empty now, your child's things all packed away.
You thought you were ready for this change.
Maybe you worry about who will need you now.
You wonder if this quiet house means you failed at something.
The silence feels too loud.
Saint Mary Magdalene went to the tomb expecting to find a dead body.
Instead she found angels and an empty space where Jesus had been.
God turns your empty spaces into new stories.
He sees beauty in what looks broken.
Today's Prayer: When Things Feel Empty
Jesus, this room feels strange and bare,
I look around and You're not there.
The quiet scares me, makes me think,
I'm standing at some scary brink.
But maybe empty means there's space,
For You to show me something new in this place.
Like Mary found You in the garden dawn,
Help me see You're not really gone.
Call my name like You did hers,
Let my worried soul feel Yours.
Amen.
A beautiful blessing is on its way!

Touch the doorframe where you're standing.
Feel how solid it is under your fingers.
You are held, even in the empty spaces.
May Saint Mary Magdalene's surprise remind you today—
Empty doesn't mean forgotten.
God has new plans growing.
Holding you in prayer,
