Witnesses to Christ: Mary Magdalene

“Recycled Orchestra of Cateura” (in Paraguay).

God makes music with misfits.

Mary begins as a mess. Luke 8.2

Luke 8:2 ESV

and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

We can all get in a mess like Mary.

We have no song to sing!

Mary was down, but her Messiah had lifted her up!

Mary Magdalene gets up early on Sunday to anoint Christ’s dead body.

Mary’s music is a five-word song: “I have seen the Lord” (John 20:18).

We have a song to sing!

And we sing it with our lips and with our lives.

What’s the song called? Our song has six words? What are they? I know that my Redeemer lives! Amen.
