Resurrection Sunday!  This is the single MOST important day in Christian history.  For on this day, Jesus was no longer beaten and bruised, no longer susceptible to human malodies, and no longer lifeless.  On this Sunday, He rose up to His glory in Heaven.

The women who cared for Jesus went to the tomb and found it empty.  Then an angel appeared and explained:

Don’t be afraid! I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen.” (Matthew 28:5-6, NLT)

What a glorious day!  From this day forward the world had a Savior that defied death and brought salvation and redemption from sin.

Thank you for all who took this journey with me this week.  This is the first time I delved into all that transpired that week.  I learned to much!

Thank you to God’s word as it guided me through this week.  The Learn Religions website was a great help also.

So on this holiest of Holy days, I pray the the spirit of Jesus fills you.

Gives you forgiveness when you sin.

Gives you strength when you are weak. 

Gives you health when you are sick.

Gives you peace when you are anxious

Gives you comfort when you grieve.

Gives you daily bread and provisions every day.

Gives you love, kindness, mercy and grace all the days of your life.

Jesus came to change the world. Not to create a religion but to care for all of His Father’s children.

Everything before passed, a new day dawned. Glory was His.

If you don’t know Jesus, please just talk to Him.  He has saved so many.  He just wants us to come to Him, He will take it from there.

He took a sinner like me and washed me clean.  He now guides my path away from danger.  He is my comfort amidst a chaotic world.  He is my rock! 

Happy Easter!  May the light of Jesus shine upon you!

Sunday’s events are recorded in Matthew 28:1-13, Mark 16:1-14, Luke 24:1-49, and John 20:1-23.
