Matthew 28:5-7 (KJV)
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

The women who came to the tomb that morning of Christ’s resurrection were seeking Jesus but not in the sense the term is popularly understood today. They knew Christ intimately. They sought Him out of love, to serve and they sought Him to know what had become of Him. They sought to grow. It is to that sort of seeker the angel gave:
Something to seeThe tomb was empty. Any growing believer must see it so. The confidence of the Christian faith is wrapped up in the resurrection of Christ.
Somewhere to goTo the disciples. Growing Christians are fellowshipping Christians. They get with other believers.
Something to tellEvery Christian has a story to tell. There is something God has done in your life. There is a piece of truth each Christian possesses that needs to be added to the treasury of his or her church. We give testimony, we teach classes and we speak privately together in order to let that message out.
