The True Meaning of Easter!


Blessed Easter


Some inspiration from the Bible:
John 11:25-26
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.

Romans 1:4-5
And Jesus Christ our Lord was shown to be the Son of God when God powerfully raised him from the dead by means of the Holy Spirit. Through Christ, God has given us the privilege and authority to tell Gentiles everywhere what God has done for them, so that they will believe and obey him, bringing glory to his name.

Ephesians 3:14-19
May you be grounded and rooted in love.

And a prayer:

For Stronger Faith

In Jesus’ name. Amen.
I will strengthen the weak.—Ezekiel 34:16

Lord, my faith feels weak. I sometimes doubt
you and do things I wish I hadn’t done.
But in weakness there is strength, and I thank you
for the wonderful truth of what you do for human lives.
You give us life, vibrant, exciting, unending life
with an enthusiasm that never runs down.
Help me to believe that with all my heart.
For this I give You thanks.


May God bless each and every one of you.
J.
