Easter

Easter is a strange time, as my little cousins sit in anticipation for the easter eggs that will come tomorrow, as a lot of workers look forward to along weekend. I find it funny how the sense of easter is one that we look forward to what is to come, and yes that is important but at Easter this is the first of two dates in the year that we as a body of people look back in unity and reflect. We back at the most important person to ever walk this earth, we look back at the cross and what it represents. We look back at our Jesus and i for one am filled with hope and joy. As tears well up at what this amazing saviour did for me it gives me the strength and hope to look forward and take strides at my future and at my ambitions. My God is a God who saves.

Why is it that we seem to get caught in selfish thoughts all the time, when did our world become self-centred? I am guilty of this also but why is it that we are like this. The God who lives in me who at this time of Easter gave his life so I might be able to spend eternity with him because he loves me that much. We are called to be Christ like yet we sit back and watch a broken people. I will rise for my God. I am so over joyed at the thought that this Easter one person might come to know God, I am so pumped that someone else may know this God who rescued me out of darkness. There is a song written by hillsong called The Time Has Come, this is a true declaration of our current global state. The time has come for us to take back the true meaning of Easter. I will go. Im so pumped to serve my God in anyway and know that i have done all i can to see his glory fall.
