We are Loved

Easter is my favorite holiday. A time of reflection, new beginnings, awareness of our Lord. It is a time of joy and a time of great sadness for me.

He is risen!

The tomb is empty.

That is great news for those that BELIEVE.

My heart is full during Lent and during the Easter season. I am amazed that Jesus died for me, and all of us. He was tortured. He died on a cross. Crucified. An excruciating death and he did it for us. He endured the pain for sinners. We are all sinners. He loved us. He loved us enough to die for us. God loved us enough to have his Son die for us. Complete love. It makes me cry knowing the pain Jesus felt, the betrayal he knew would come.

THE POWER OF THE CROSS

Crowned Jesus with Glory
Reconciled us to God
Overcame the World
Shed blood for our sins
Saved us from our own way

So this Easter, rise in celebration of His love for us, each and every one of us. Share your faith, praise God and love him for all He has done and continues to do through His people.
