It’s Easter Sunday and I can’t even go to Church, I thought when I awakened. I couldn’t go last year either because I was sick. That seemed different though because everyone else could go. I’ll celebrate Easter Sunday anyway. I am well, and Jesus did rise from the dead. He forgave all my sins and offered me eternal life. What more could I ask?
So I got up and went to church in my pajamas. I turned on my tablet and up popped Pastor Ted! I heard the most wonderful Easter sermon ever! After his last Amen he had someone film some of my church families. They were stuck at home, like me, but in their yards, waving their arms high in the air, yelling:”He is risen, Halleluia!” So, I joined them. I must have looked goofy, waving my arms and yelling in my pajamas! But I didn’t care. After all, It was Easter Sunday.
There is more to Easter than just a day, after all. It is the best day in the whole year! It isn’t eggs and bunny rabbits. Jesus rose from the dead and because he suffered that terrible death on that Friday, he will forgive all of our sins and also give us eternal life! And just think, that’s all I have to do is believe. What a day Easter is.
That isn’t all I did on Easter either. My children were all here by an internet program. It was wonderful. we talked and laughed for about 40 minutes. I hadn’t seen any of them, even the ones living in my town, for a long time. I have complained about all the high tech stuff around these days in comparison to the good old days. But that was something else!
I hope you had a happy and blessed Easter Sunday too. He is risen. Halleluia!
