Roll Away the Stone

The day has come when all will see that Jesus Christ of Galilee was truly sent from God above to show mankind His greatest love. By Peter three times was denied then sentenced to be crucified. They nailed him there upon the cross and thus became our greatest loss. Crying out to God our Savior died. Before his tomb,the Marys cried. In front of the place Jesus was laid an angel said"Don't be afraid. For Jesus has gone from this place and soon you'll look upon his face". And so the good news quickly spread that Jesus was risen from the dead. The Savior died to bear our sin and cleanse us of it from within. God gave to us His only son and now our new life has begun. So when you don your Easter bonnet stop a moment and ponder upon it that Jesus is the real reason we celebrate this holy season.

With all the chocolate rabbits and egg hunts, we sometimes forget the real meaning of Easter. Would have loved to be there the moment the stone was rolled away! Great work, Deb. Love, Carolyn
