What the power of resurrection and easter mean for us today

The resurrection of Jesus isn’t just a moment in history, it’s a living, breathing reminder that dead things can live again. That impossible stories can still turn around. That darkness doesn’t get the final say. For so many of us, life can feel like a series of small deaths. Maybe it’s the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, a dream deferred, or even just the slow, quiet fading of hope. But resurrection tells us that God is still writing even when things look over.

The beauty of resurrection is that it wasn’t quiet or polite. It disrupted the tomb, shook the guards, and declared life in a place designed to hold death. That same power, the one that rolled the stone away and breathed again into stillness, is available to us today. It means we don’t have to be defined by what we’ve lost. It means grief isn’t the whole story. It means we serve a God who specializes in comebacks.

In our everyday lives, resurrection looks like showing up when you feel unseen. It looks like trying again after failure. It looks like choosing joy, daring to dream, and still believing that something good can come from where you are. It’s not always loud or flashy, it can look like healing quietly in your room, forgiving someone who didn’t apologize, or simply getting out of bed and deciding you’re not done yet.

For the modern woman trying to navigate faith, purpose, and healing all at once, resurrection is hope with skin on. It’s the courage to say, “My story isn’t over.” It reminds us that new beginnings aren’t just possible, they’re promised. And while the world may celebrate resurrection once a year, we get to walk in it daily.

So whatever part of you has felt buried lately—your voice, confidence, belief in love, dreams—know this: resurrection power still lives. And so do you.
