LOVE WINS!

Happy Resurrection Sunday!

There is great power in Jesus, but we must understand today, Resurrection Sunday.

We read in St. John’s Gospel,

They (Peter and John) did not yet understand the Scripture that He had to rise from the dead.

John 20:9

The understanding of the Resurrection’s significance in our lives is essential in order to tap into the power of the Resurrection in our lives. Jesus did not rise and disappear! He stayed with His Disciples for 40 days! They had to be taught! The event of the Resurrection is the central point in in history! No one has ever been nailed to the cross with witnesses that could testify to seeing a person die and be buried and on the third day rise from the tomb!

After 40 days of instruction, in ten days immediately following Ascension Thursday, when Jesus ascended to the right hand of Father God, God sent the Holy Ghost to finish the instruction! Christianity is the product of this instruction!

And we are not finished yet!

Easter Sunday, Resurrection Day, is not over! We have 50 days to be instructed by the Word, our spiritual reading and our meditation!

We need this time because if we can understand the Resurrection, we know that nothing can destroy us!

In the final analysis, LOVE WINS!

Go To Jesus!

Learn From Him!

“For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.”
Matthew 11:30

Life gets crazy!

Normal people like us have many challenges that we have to deal with on a regular basis. And these things can become overwhelming! Yet Jesus wants us to use His Way to meet these situations.

What is the Jesus technique?

Jesus uses the Divine Power of Love!

When we allow love to be the reason that we do the things that we do, our situations change. Love means to take care of ourselves. It means to eat healthy, to get enough rest, and to stay away from things that that could harm us.

When we allow love to be the way we deal with people we encounter, even those who want to hurt us, we do the best that we can to live in peace and not to try to hurt the person back. This releases us from a terribly heavy burden and put the burden that Jesus wants us to have, love. We learn to do what we are able to do, loving ourselves in the process, and then letting go, and moving onward!

Jesus on the Cross is the Divine Example of the Power of Love at work. Jesus did what He was sent to do, He loved us to the end, but in actuality, it was the Beginning for us! Hate tried to kill Love, but on the Third Day, Love Rose Never To Die Again!

This Love is our power and how we are to maintain peace in our struggles!
Learn from Jesus and live in love!

We Rise!

The Resurrection Faith!

“Now He is not God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to Him.”
Luke 20:38

Resurrection Faith brings meaning to our lives. It is required if want to have Jesus as our Lord! The Lord’s Disciple must follow Him even when things do not make sense according to the world.

Jesus chose love!

The Resurrection Life Choice requires Love! This goes against the way the world works.

Jesus said:”But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them…”
Matthew 5:43-44

This radical approach to life led to the Passion and the Death of Jesus! But for those who follow the Lord, this is not the end of the story!

Choosing to love people, all people, means to following Jesus, and will lead us to the result of Jesus’ life, Resurrection!

Choose the way of peace, choose Resurrection Life, rise now from whatever may be holding us down!

Choose to Rise!

Believers Take Note!

Resurrection Love

“A new commandment I give you that you love one another; even as I loved you, that you may also love one another.”
John 13:34

Love was on the Cross!

Jesus is Love and He was nailed to the Cross. His message is too radical for for many to deal will. Hate thought it could destroy Love!

Wrong!

Jesus’ Love will have the Final Victory!

The hate that put Jesus on the Cross was destroyed by the Resurrection of Jesus, the Resurrection of Love!

Our challenge for us is to love even when we have to deal with hate all around us! Hate will be defeated. We, believers, must respond to hate as Jesus did!

They will know that we are Christians by our love!
