(Mark 16:6 NKJV) But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.
Jesus is risen!
Those three words are the hope upon which our salvation is based. Without the resurrection, the death of Jesus would have served no purpose whatsoever.
The fact that he rose from the grave on the third day broke the back of sin and death and gave us all a new chance at life, free from the burden of our sin and the sting of death.
As we move into the weekend, we urge you to be focused on what we are supposed to be celebrating… the resurrection of our Savior.
The world has so diluted this celebration that it has become almost benign and meaningless. Eggs, bunnies and other irrelevant things have replaced our Jesus and drawn the attention away from our hope and placed it on things… things that we are manipulated into buying because of clever marketing schemes.
Save your money and spend this weekend celebrating life… the life that was sacrificed for you and for me, to give us freedom.
Happy resurrection day to you and your loved ones.
He is risen indeed!
