Easter seems to have become a holiday of "reasons."
Another reason to spend money.
Another reason for a bank holiday weekend.
Another reason to buy chocolate eggs.
Isaiah 53:5 (NIV)
"But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities, the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed."
For me, Easter is Gods way of telling the world how much He loves them.
He sent His only son to die for us (how many of you parents would sacrifice your children for people who continuously turn their backs on you?), so that we have a chance of living life and not just any type of life.
A FULL life, an ABUNDANT life.
Life with no fear, no shame, no sickness, no condemnation attached.
Why? Because He loves us.
How? Because He died for us.
The power that rose Jesus from the dead on the third day after death, is the same power that is available to both me and you and anyone who believes in Him!
That is, the power to change your circumstance, your life, your situations, especially those that seem unchangeable, around for good! It is power that can be accessed and used whenever you call upon it.
That resurrection power lives on the inside of you!
YOU CARRY IT! I CARRY IT! - If only you believe..

I love Him, because He first loved me.
Happy Easter everyone!
