The story of the resurrection appearance on the road to Emmaus - TopicsExpress



          

The story of the resurrection appearance on the road to Emmaus gives us the broader picture of our own struggle to recognize blessings that are in our midst. This is not to minimize grief, but to move past that to another universal truth presented by this story.
