Remember when you were a child and your parents told you all sorts of things that you disregarded at the time but look back later and realize that they actually did know what they were talking about? It turns out that as you age, your parents become much smarter.
In some ways, it would've been very funny if Jesus had walked into the room with all the disciples and simply said, "Remember what I was telling you all for the last three years?" Jesus is too gracious for that, but the angel in the empty tomb does point out that Jesus had been talking about this for years. He predicted his own death and resurrection, which by itself makes him the single most amazing person that has ever lived.
What would you do for the opportunity to draw close to this man? How would you change your life to make more room for him? What is more important than this?
