Easter Sunday - New Life - New members in the Church - the Family of God - now larger. This is truly the Day - The Lord Has Made - Let Us Rejoice - Be Glad In It. For the Faithful - Easter a lot more than bunnies - colored eggs - dinner tables overflowing with food - drink. Easter to acknowledge - God is Good - Blessings received every day of our lives. Today we celebrate - around the world - Jesus' victory over - Death - Satan. In His resurrection - attained for all of us - Our chance to gain Heaven - when our time comes.
Today - Easter Sunday - marks the beginning of Eastertide - 7 weeks of the - Easter Season. For the next 50 days we celebrate Christ's victory at Easter - until Pentecost. Similar to the 6 weeks of Lent - when we prepared ourselves to celebrate Easter - now 50 days to celebrate - share in His victory. Fortified by this victory - easier for us - to be very active disciples - to share His story - message. As always - Jesus - God - constantly with us - guiding - leading us to - Holiness.
