Some of you, especially if you have young ones in the family, would dye eggs, eat chocolate bunnies, and participate in outdoor activities like egg hunts and one-legged sack races.
Some like to buy new clothes for themselves and the children and go to church in their Sunday best. They prepare feasts to share with friends and family.
Easter represents Spring and new beginnings--we can all use a fresh start.
While you are celebrating and enjoying these fun activities, don’t forget why we celebrate Easter.
When Adam disobeyed God, his sin brought eternal spiritual death. To pay this debt Jesus, a sinless man, came as a blood sacrifice to save mankind. When we BELIEVE that Jesus died, was buried, and rose from the dead, we can look forward to a new body and life in heaven. Easter is when celebrate his resurrection and thank God for this gift.
I recommend we appreciate and celebrate our blessings every day.
Happy Easter
