After Jesus is raised from the dead one of the first things he does is appear to his disciples to comfort them. Mary sees him and thinks it is the gardener. Contrary to the Christmas story with angles singing in the skies and a big star leading people. Resurrection seems to be very low key yet it is one of the most important events. It seems Jesus makes it a priority to comfort his friends first.
This comfort is what not only heals them but sets them up for their calling as apostles to share the gospel through the world.
