What I find puzzling is that Jesus did not go straight to the disciples. Where was He just before Mary ran into him? Even then, He doesn’t seem to be purposefully going anywhere.
puzzle as you must...Christ IS your risen savoir... I choose to let all my questions about the Only Son of God rest in my Faith...meanwhile I try my Ustmost to Be His Highest.. sleep well my dear sister in Christ.. let every question bring a revelation,,,
LOL, so you can't figure out what God was doing? According to what, your sense of time? Your sense of activity? Tell me, if Jesus was standing right in front of you, looking you in the eyes, and talking to you - is that ALL he's doing?
LOL!

I believe Jesus was teaching the apostles a lesson: There would be doubt, then there would be proof. He knew it would always be this way for His church. Hence, the saints who have responded to prayers with a miracle cure which doctors say could not have happened except for a miracle.
If you go to his linked blog you will see two stories: one a chronilogical listing of ressurection day happenings and another discussing where Jesus went when he died.
Both have been posted on FR.
