Song of the day: Songs For A Blue Guitar - Red House Painters
Bunnies, egg hunts, duckies, chocolate, daffodils, presents, spring… This is what I think of when someone says Easter. How many people out there know the meaning of Easter or even Good Friday, other than getting chocolate and the working world gets time and a half on their pay. Do you know that Good Friday is the day that Jesus Christ hung on the cross for our sins? or that Easter is the day that He rose again. I think that's a little better than chocolate. 'Cause you know, which would we rather? chocolate or forgiven sins and eternal life? Tough decision eh? His hands and feet are permanently scared for us, he gave his life for us and the least we could do is believe in him. So when you're munching on that chocolate for the next week, think of why we celebrate and what was given for us to be free of sin. Think of Jesus hanging on that cross saying "Forgive them, they do not know what they do". Think of the biggest sacrifice, one no other can ever repay. The best we can do is give our life over to him, it's not like he didn't give anything up for you.
