When Jesus rose on the third day, the first person He made Himself known to was Mary Magdalene. At this time, Mary was distraught, hurting, grieving and confused about the death of Jesus and the fact that the body was missing from the tomb. This was the state of mind and heart that Jesus met Mary.
This interaction between Mary and Jesus (found in John 20) has great importance to us. What we see is Jesus meeting Mary right where she is at and comforting her with His presence.
Jesus hasn't changed, so He meets us right where we are at and comforts us with His presence. Just turn around because Jesus is right there for you, ready to say your name.
