With all our Lord and Saviour has done for us at Easter,
I was dismayed to see an ad a few days before Easter that read
"meet the Easter Bunny".
Going to the cross was no fun and games for our Lord.
It says in Luke 22:44
"And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground."
Imagine Jesus asking his disciples to pray with him at such a time
of anguish and need, but instead,
they fell asleep because they were too weak
to keep watch and pray.
“Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?” Jesus said in Matthew 26:40.
As you and I prepare for Easter with all the splendour, let us remember the horrendous sacrifice that He paid for each and everyone of us.
This sacrifice that happened over 2000 years ago
still has transforming power today.
Take advantage of the costly price He paid to redeem us of our sin and shame.
Have a wonderful Happy Easter,
Louise Doerksen.
