Day 38: He is Risen!

John and others return to the room where Jesus's followers have gathered. They come in saying that Jesus has indeed risen. John says Jesus appeared to Simon on the road. Simon talks about how they didn't recognize Jesus at first. But when they sat down to dinner and Jesus broke the bread, they knew who He was. Jesus stands in the room with them. He asks why they're troubled and doubtful. He holds out His hands for them to see. He encourages them to touch Him to prove to them that He's flesh and blood. They reach out and touch His hands.
