Easter Sunday, April 08, 2012
“He is risen, he is risen indeed,” it felt
strange to hear it at church today. Perhaps it’s because when I was little,
even thought we did go to church, I don’t remember hearing or saying it. But I
think it’s more. I appreciate Jesus’ sacrifice for me, every day, not just Easter.
On Easter I always spend time with family that is my focus. We eat till we're
stuffed, get reacquainted since Christmas, and laugh—lots of laughing. I don’t
think Jesus would mind that. I think he would appreciate it. We’re God’s
children after all and just like a parent smiles as their child plays with his friends, never knowing how lucky they are God rejoices in our joy.
Happy Easter everyone! He has taken our shame. We are free to work in his glory without the hindrance!
