4月9日 EasterThere have been this debate raging in the church over which is more important...the birth,death, or resurrection of CHRIST? This, to me, is like asking who is the most important...GOD, JESUS, or THE HOLY SPIRIT? Where would we be without either? i love celebrating the birth of Jesus, i have had to really be comforted about the brutal beating of my beautiful Savior, but i get really excited about the Resurrection of Jesus. Although it hurt me so deeply to see Jesus beaten, and battered and hanging on the cross with people like me, mocking and scorning him, i know now that His death was necessary for me to be able to live this life victoriously through CHRIST JESUS.
Ah the things that He accomplish on that cross just for me. Jesus took my place, died my death so that i could take His place, and live His life. The swap is so one sided, in my favor! What a lovely and loving GOD we serve. Jesus came into this sinful world, took on my sins that He knew that i would commit almost two thousand years after His death, and nailed them on the cross, just for me! He took all my darkness away, so that i could live in His light. Jesus hung there naked so that i would have the right to put on the whole armour of the Lord. Then on the first day of the week, my Lord, my Savior, my Brother, my Friend rose from the grave with all power in His hand and ascended to the Father, so that He could descend once again to walk and talk with His Apostles, and assure them of that power from on high being given to them. After forty days He ascended again into heaven where He now sit on the right hand of the throne of GOD. Then ten days later He sent to them the Holy Spirit who brings us the power to walk like Jesus, talk like Jesus, live like Jesus, give like Jesus, forgive like Jesus, and love like Jesus.
When i think of Easter Sunday these are the things that i think on. Jesus, the SON OF GOD, is my PASSOVER! and because of His blood i have now been sealed by the Holy Spirit. For me, this is the seaon that JESUS IS THE REASON FOR. This is the season of love personified. For God so loved the world that He gave us Jesus. And Jesus loved us so much that He laid down His life for ours. He didn't think in His mind that none of us were unworthy of His love, He didn't come and die for just the righteous, He died for a sinful man like me. Thank you for seeing for me where i couldn't see for myself. Jesus knew the day would come when i would turn from my sinful ways and seek His Fathers' face and by His birth, death, and resurrection He made a way possible for me to do just that. Without money, and without price.
THANK YOU
may you all have a BLESSED EASTER.
