Alleluia Amen!
A glorious day to be alive!
Jesus, who died on the Cross, on the third day rose from the dead and spent 40 days working with His Disciples and then Ascended to the Father to reign until He returns, at the end of the ages, is our marvelous reality!
Let us look at a section of one of the Resurrection accounts,
While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel;
And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here but has risen.” Luke 24:4-5
Jesus is Risen!
The impossible happened! A very dead person rises from the dead and He takes us with Him!
Jesus was not born for Himself! He did not grow up to adulthood for Himself! He did not teach us for Himself! He did not suffer for Himself! He did not die on the Cross for Himself! And He did not rise from the dead for Himself! Jesus did it all for us!
What will we do for Him? We have fifty days to celebrate His resurrection. What will we do to change our lives as a gift in response to the radical love that Jesus reveals in His 33 years of His earthly life?
Make this Eastertide 2025 awesome!
