Tomorrow Is Easter

While we're caught up in the Easter egg hunts and munching our chocolate bunnies, let's not forget why we really celebrate Easter. No, it's not for the big, giant bunny. It's not for the chocolate.

It's because Someone loved us so much that He not only tolerated our existence--as we took every opportunity to insult and defy Him--but He died for us. He died, and God piled all our guilt on Him.

Jesus didn't do anything wrong. Think of something that was so unjust that it just made you sick. Well, it's ten times worse than that. It's like someone being falsely accused of a horrible crime while the real criminal gets off completely free, even benefits.

Please remember that Jesus not only died, but He came back to life so that we can live a new life free of guilt. Happy Easter!

Hugs & Blessings,

Izori
