Suddenly Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” Matthew 28:9

God of the Garden Tomb,
Mover of earth and stone and air,
Speaker of "Hello",
in the morning and
in our mourning
you step out and greet us
as if we were neighbors
stepping out to get our mail
after a long day of work.
Make "Hello" natural again
because we don't know each other.
Amen.
