Easter and Christ Resurrection

I think about what Easter means to me.
There’s message that I hope you’ll see.

There is a truth and a purpose for believing.
But too often, Easter lost it’s true meaning!

In this society, there tends to be a habit.
Of comparing Jesus with the bunny rabbit.

There’s chocolate, candy and eggs in the store.
As people come back, looking for more.

There’s a message God wants to tell you…
A message of life...  Don’t let others fool you!

A new life in Jesus, can be yours for the asking.
An abundance of HIS love and life everlasting!

HE is alive!  He arose from the dead!
His message of life eternal will forever be said!

His gifts of love and mercy are for us to receive.
He stands at your hearts door.  Won’t you believe?

What Easter means, is that Jesus is risen!
This day…  You can be cleansed and forgiven!

Won’t you allow HIS message to touch your soul?
The risen Jesus can make you whole!

Let’s proclaim God’s message and make it clear!
Jesus Christ is alive today!  
He’s right HERE!

The tomb is empty!  
The stone is rolled away!
This is God’s time!  
The Lord’s resurrection day!

Beautiful pen Jim! Easter is approaching us fast, nice thoughts about the Lord. He came and died for our sins theres not other love like his, unconditional and always loving and forgiving no matter the mistakes as humans we do. His love is divine and true, so glad He came to save us from sin and despair always there to dry our tears and give us love and hopes for today and tomorrow. And knowing that I have his divine love friendship and salvation no matter what happens to me in this world good or bad is a consolation to my heart and soul.Enjoyed!A 7!Wishing you a lovely evening! In His light! God bless you! :) D.
