And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together, saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!” Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread. (Luke 24:33-35 ESV)
Overwhelmed by realizing the Lord was Risen indeed, the two disciples returned to Jerusalem to tell the apostles what they had experienced - on the road, at the table, and especially, in their hearts. This was nothing to sit and savor - it had to be shared. Much in the same way, we need to spend time with Him, listen to Him, let Him reveal what we need to see and hear, and then share it with others. Maybe in a sense, telling it reinforces the truth to us as well as letting others know: He is risen indeed.
