Easter



15 March 2012                                             


Mark 8:34  And calling near the crowd with His disciples, He said to them, Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take his cross, and let him follow Me.


As we come closer to Easter, so we should be thinking of what Easter means to each of us. For some it is a time when we are able to indulge in more chocolate treats, egg hunts for the children, family time and public holidays, for some it is a serious time of meditation of the preparation, suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus. For centuries Easter has been about the death and resurrection, the death of our old self and the resurrection of the new self in Christ.


For each of us we have our own interpretation, and our own perspective of this very special time. Each day needs for us to think of the walk of Jesus to Jerusalem, and likewise we too should be also journeying to our Jerusalem, our Gethsemane, our Calvary, our tomb, our resurrection with Jesus Christ. This year Easter is special, because it brings us to that place where we examine our souls, our lives, and bring this to the cross.


Be encouraged today to continue on this journey of discovery on the walk to eternal life.


David
