Christian Easter Ponderings




Easter approaches on tender, Lily-white feet!
Most think only of chocolate Easter bunnies, a most delicious treat!

Or, of going Easter shopping in lovely, spacious malls.
They know not, the significance of what Easter means at all.

A man hung on a cross, and died to save humanity.
But the move is on to discredit Christ, who died on that tree!

Some children, of Him, only lies do parents tell!
They are told there is no God, no Heaven and no Hell.

The goal .....to make man, a god?
While our only end, is to lie dead, beneath that cold sod.

For believers, their eternal future is both divine and glorious.
Singing with the Angels in God’s chosen, golden chorus!

Pangie, I join with you in celebrating the resurrection of Christ, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. I rejoice in his sinless life, his perfect submission to the father, his compassion for humanity, and his conquering death by his resurrection. Hallelujah! A blessed Easter to you, my friend ~ John

Amen and Alleluia Pangie! We do so many things at Easter and have no idea why we do them or how they relate to this celebration of Resurrection and baptism into new life! I so enjoyed this poem. Happy Easter blessings to you my friend! Know you and your ambulatory "resurrection" remain in my thoughts and my prayers!

What a fantastic commentary my friend! You and Brother Jacob! A dynamic duo. Glad you enjoyed this one, the walking is a miraculous blessing. Maybe a so what to others, not to me! While in hospital, I kept getting inspirations from nurses, therapists, even the floor cleaner in a non Christian “Hospital from Heaven as I called it.never one word about Covid or “you must get the jabb.”Masks in hallways only. Best food on the planet.Awesome. Therapists really had to encourage me! My fear is gone...,yahoo....prayers and blessings come your way. Thank you much. Pangie...saw all the equipment they put in my leg and thigh. 6 hour surgery...))) Pangie xo
