Easter has always been my most favorite holiday of them all. Of course, I have the more superficial reasons, like the warming spring weather (57 yesterday!), the spring dresses (I love wearing skirts when I can), the Easter baskets in the morning when I was a child. Oh, how I really do miss those!
Those things aside, Easter is when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. Friday evening we attended the Good Friday service at our church to remember and reflect on Christ's sacrifice on the cross for our sins. Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." John 2:19 Sunday we celebrated Jesus' raising up from the dead.
Jesus, thank you for suffering for me, for my sins. Thank you for sacrificing your life for the sake of my life.
