Jesus Christ walking with His disciples on the road to Emmaus reveals a covenant pattern. Sometimes on our dusty roads to Emmaus, we feel alone, misunderstood, burdened, unseen. But as He “talk[s] with us by the way,” His words in scripture can cause our hearts to burn. As He breaks and blesses the sacramental bread, His ordinances and covenants can help us know Him. As we walk by faith with Him, abiding in Him, and He in us, we come to know He lives. His Easter promises are real. – Gerrit W. Gong, “’Tis Eastertide: No One Walks Alone,” Liahona (CR) May 2025
