~~~ Easter Sunday ~~~
~~~Resurrection of the Lord~~~
~~~ Acts of the Apostles 10:34A, 37-43 ~~~ Psalm 118 ~~~
~~~Colossians 3:1-4 ~~~ John 20:1-9 ~~~
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad.
This is the day for all Christians
to lift our hearts and minds to heaven.
It the day set aside for our thoughts
to concentrate on what is above.
Spring is the perfect time to celebrate
the Resurrection of the Lord.
Spring is a time when nature bursts into bloom.
All of nature is rejoicing with new growth.
It is a time for us to also rejoice in our new birth
with Jesus...we have been promised life everlasting.
Life everlasting...a new life unlike the one we are living today.
Christ indeed from death is risen, our new life obtaining.
...they did not yet understand the Scripture
that he had to rise from the dead.
Imagine the confusion on that morning after the crucifixion.
The women come first to the tomb only to find
the body of Jesus missing.
They quickly run to tell Peter and the other disciples.
They so desperately wanted to believe that
Jesus was raised from the dead
and not snatched by some grave robbers.
The right hand of the LORD has struck with power;
the right hand of the LORD is exalted.
This is the day the Lord has made for us
to spread the joy of the Lord.
It is a day above all days to rejoice,,,
A day to loudly sing Alleluia.
For the Lord has been raised from the dead.
The Spirit of the Lord Blesses us
in a very special way today.
Let your whole being be a reflection of his Joy.
Jesus Christ is Risen today...
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
~~~Peace~~~
