Recognizing Jesus

It has been a while since I've posted. We are in the midst of the Corona Virus lockdown and my feelings have been all over the place; lazy, sad, anxious, grieving, peaceful, grateful, lonely, angry, scared, sick (cough cough). I have really been missing sitting on the floor with my third graders in our Sunday School class, talking about our week, I will never take that time for granted ever again. I know we will get back to normal some day but in the meantime, I thought I would try to learn the stories that are in our Deep Blue Spring curriculum and send them out to the families of our church. I may not get to do it every week but here is the one for this week. I always wondered how in the world these two followers of Jesus didn't recognize him, was his appearance different? Did he purposely make them not notice who he was or were they just not expecting the risen Lord to be walking to Emmaus? How I would have loved to have been on the road with them as Jesus opened up the Scriptures to them, interpreting everything from Moses and the prophets as it concerned him! What do you wonder when you hear this story from Luke 24:13-43? Have a very healthy, safe week, stay home and wash your hands ;)
