This week we look at Love that will not let go! The Resurrection!
Love perseveres when all hope is gone. Love does not give up. Mary was someone who loved beyond death and beyond hope. Perhaps as a result of her perseverance, she was commissioned by the risen Christ to tell the disciples that Christ had risen and she had not only seen him she had spoken with him.
Like Mary Magdalen, we also have been commissioned to share the good news that life eternal is available to all if we put our faith and trust in Christ and his resurrection.

The cross is part of the redemption story. Without Christ's suffering on the cross, the payment of our sins would not have been satisfied. We are asked to enter into Christ's suffering to be able to experience the power of the resurrection. For often it is through suffering that we are able to grow in our understanding and knowledge of our relationship with our Heavenly Father.

Pride has been called the basis of all sins. While it is one of three basic sins (lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life) it certainly was the sin that caused Abimelech to kill his 69 brothers and later the citizens two cities were killed before he was killed.

After following the God-given victory over the Medians Gideon goes off on a mission of vengeance. Not only does he pursue two kings because they killed his brothers, but he also turns on his own people when they refuse to help.
We need to learn to be as cautious after the battle as we were going into the battle. Today there are millions of unexploded landmines still in the ground after many of the wars around the world. It is cheaper to leave the unexploded mines in the f=ground than remove them. The problem is that these landmines continue to be active for years just waiting for someone to step on them and destroy lives long after the war is over.
After Gideon refused to be crowned King he and his family lived like kings. Often we lose the victory after winning the war.
