In one of the Fast and Furious movies the character named Letty looses her memory. When she discovers that she was actually married and has a long history with Dom, the character played by Vin Diesel he goes on to prove how much he knows her by pointing out various scars and their origin. Scars are permanent and with each scar there is a story that is unique to that particular scar. For some their scars are a reminder of what God has brought them through and they wouldn't have it any other way like my daughter Dalia who has a scar on her neck that reminds us of the God's gift of sparing her life over 20 years ago.
Some people are easily recognized by their scars. In today's reading of thelifebook, Jesus presents Himself to His disciples and so they know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is really Him, He shows them His hand and feet. We too will made alive again one day and will be given a new body that the Bible calls glorious and immortal the only difference will be that it will not have any scars. Nothing about that body will remind us of what we suffered here during this time. We know Jesus could have easily been raised to new life in a body with no scars, but for the glory of God, Jesus will forever be marked by His crucifixion. This will make Him the most recognizable person for all eternity. Thank You Jesus! Have great day Loved Ones and God bless you real good!
