💭 Reflect
After the resurrection, Jesus spent 40 more days on Earth, appearing to many people. One of these times is actually the Scripture that Roadtrip24/7 is based on! Two of Jesus’ followers were walking along and having a conversation when Jesus joined them. They didn’t recognise Him, but He spoke with such special wisdom that their hearts burned in their chests.  

📖 Luke 24:15
“As they talked and discussed these things, Jesus himself suddenly came and began walking with them.”

❔ Questions

• How would you feel if Jesus appeared to you where you are right now?
• What did Jesus tell them that made their hearts burn like that? (Read in your Bible)

🙏 Talk to God
Use your own words to pray:
Dear ______, when I read about the Emmaus road I feel _______. Would You also come walk next to me in my own life – especially in the areas of _____________? Would You open my mind and my eyes to understand the Bible, even when it seems ___________________? Amen.

🎨 Respond
Write the word ‘Emmaus’ on your hand today. Every time you see it, remember that Jesus is right next to you through His Holy Spirit.

• Jesus allowed the disciple, Thomas, to touch His wounds. Read about that in John 20:24-29.
• Why do you think Jesus first spent more time on Earth after His death and resurrection? (Hint: He promised them something, or Someone…)
• Read the end of Matthew 28 to understand your purpose.
