Happy Easter everyone! I know this one was different then what you are used to but I hope you made the best out of your circumstances. So many things are being cancelled right now, it feels like our lives have been cancelled. There are so many unknowns that keep your mind running day and night. Not today, today we are reminded of the power of Jesus. Jesus conquered the grave! He conquers all of our fears. All we need to do is put our trust in his name.
We focus on the things like sports, school and work being canceled but why don’t we focus on what’s more important, that is death has been canceled, our debt from sin has been cancelled, guilt and shame have been cancelled all from Jesus dying on the cross. If that is not the most powerful thing I don’t know what is.
Today as I am reminded of this hope filled up inside of me. I am no longer scared for I remember I have Jesus and so do you all you have to do is let him in.
My favorite message from Easter is this; Jesus conquered death, he cancelled it. Yes there is still “physical death” but Jesus conquered death, he gave us eternal life. I remind myself of this everyday and it gives me so much hope and peace, I hope it does for you too if you have lost someone or just in general.
Peter 1:3 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead”
We our born again, our loved ones are born again, the people who lost their lives during this pandemic are born again!
