Mark 16- Who Will Roll Away the Stone?

"Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?" (Mark 16:3) The ladies were attempting to anoint Jesus' body. They wanted to give him a proper burial but were concerned, "how will we get to him? He is inaccessible." How can the women get to Jesus who has been sealed in a tomb. "But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away." (Verse 4) God had made a way! We want access to Jesus. We want to be near to him and sometimes he seems inaccessible. But, God makes a way. He wants us to come to him and he makes himself available. I don't know what stone stands in your path but I imagine that it "is very large" and difficult to move. But, not so for God! He rolls away the stone that hinders your access to his Son and makes a way for you to meet with him.
