It’s Easter weekend and for many all that means is an extra day off work and lots of chocolate bunnies to eat. Don’t get me wrong. I like the day off and the chocolate as much as the next person. But Easter is significant for me. Very significant.
Jesus Christ suffered a horrible, horrible death so that I could have eternal life. I’d say that was pretty significant. And the best part about it is that Jesus didn’t stay dead. He fooled the old puss-head devil, and He’s alive today! Christianity is the only faith that has an actual living God – One who paid a price for me when I didn’t deserve it at all. I am so thankful He did!
This song keeps going through my head. An oldie, but still one of my favorites.
Hallelujah, Jesus is alive!
Death has lost its victory
And the grave has been denied.
Jesus lives forever,
He’s alive!
He’s the Alpha and Omega,
The first and last is He.
The curse of sin is broken
And we have perfect victory.
The Lamb of God is risen,
He’s alive!
Hallelujah, Jesus is alive!
