It's almost Easter. It came really early this year. I wonder how that happens? I hope this Easter brings a renewed sense of the joy we have in Christ. Knowing that eternal life awaits those who trust in Him is somewhat incomprehensible in our human minds. Live forever in some place called heaven? Right. Yet we live each day as if we're always going to live here on earth. Isn't that strange? I can't begin to fathom what eternal life holds for me in heaven or what I will see. What I can be sure of is that I'll get there someday. But did you know that I don't really have to wait till then to have eternal life?
If you've heard of the Easter story but never thought it to be true, then take a moment and re-think it. Christ died on the cross for our sins and resurrected from the dead to give all who believe in Him as the Son of God, eternal life. Read it for yourselves in John 3:16. That eternal life Christ offers, starts right here on earth when you accept Christ as your Savior. You don't have to wait to get to heaven! This Easter rejoice that God made that possible through Jesus and join me in eternity!
