I’m sitting at my desk this early morning, typing and occasionally looking out the window. I see the beginnings of spring, with the early flowers, trees pregnant with a promised renewal of life, the sun rays strongly dissipating the heavy mists in the valleys. Reminders that Easter–Resurrection Day–is approaching. And I realize anew what an awesome celebration it truly is.
-
First and foremost, our God is a true God that loves, faithful to do as He says, just, all knowing, and all powerful. How confident that encourages me to be!
-
Secondly, that such a God cared enough he sent his ONLY beloved son into the world for his creation: mankind. What a sacrifice! What a love! Unlike other so-called gods who demand and never give, our supreme God gave his best and only for us. How humble I feel to know he would, and did, do such a thing!
-
Thirdly, our God’s son is a LIVE Son. He’s not dead. Although, mankind killed him in a horribly, brutal crucifixion, he died to conquer death and the grave, that we might live through Him. How wonderfully alive I feel because of that life-changing event. Forever more–through this life, even into death, I can have the assurance that I live now, and will live eventually with my God, my Savior and King!
Happy Easter Carole! He Is Risen! 🙂
Hope your Easter Sunday was wonderful!
Happy Easter. I too am so thankful for what God has done for me.
True, Ann! He is a great God!
Beautiful, Carole. Yours words made me want to stand and shout, Yes!
Thank you, Gail. I felt the same way, even though I wrote it. 🙂
