John 20:16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
When you are surprised by someone, what comes out of your mouth is normally the truth from your heart; I’m not talking about being scared witless by someone, but by someone turning up out of the blue for you!
What is your reaction going to be when you see Christ? Are you going to show a great amount of faith like Thomas or Mary did – each in their own way?
Christ wants us to live with Him in this life so we are most prepared for eternal life with Him later. Christ wants us to know the truth now.
