The Greatest Importance Of Easter Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Today it is not surprising
that women were the first to see the empty tomb of Jesus

and they announced
the empty tomb for the rest of Jesus' followers.

But in the ancient Greco-Roman world,
women were not the messengers the world trusted
to deliver important news.

That was really impossible,
the people around them would say
these women were crazy or drunk!

But it is true that the Gospels say
that women see and tell, see and share,
weep and wait, after discovering the empty tomb of Jesus.

we have to look at the 5 Easter women
who witnessed the death and resurrection of Christ.

After all, it was women who announced this
in a men's majority domination!

think how much courage they must have
to have the strength to announce this!

having read this in the Holy Scriptures,
i retreated into solitude
and thank the Lord for His absolute Omnipotence
