Easter 2019
I just love Easter.
The tomb is empty. Death is defeated. Jesus is risen. Oh, happy day!
My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless. For if keeping the law could make us right with God, then there was no need for Christ to die.
Galatians 2:20-21
There is nothing better than celebrating the One who made the greatest sacrifice of all, and who overcame death for you, and for me. It’s heartbreaking, humbling, and overwhelming to think of what He did for us, and how much He loves us.
Easter is my favorite.
Like so many Easters the past few years, my parents came up for the day. They joined my family at church, and then when Kristi and her family finished serving at their church, we all came back to my house for a big Easter Sunday dinner. Followed by… an Easter egg hunt!
