On this beautiful Easter Sunday, let us rejoice in the knowledge that Christ is alive and well. Yes, this is the day we celebrate and remember every year as the resurrection of Christ, our Lord, but if one thinks about it, every day is a resurrection of Christ. He lives today, He lives inside each and every one of us providing transformation every single day of the year.
On Maundy Thursday, or Holy Day, Christ broke bread with his disciples and told of his upcoming days. While the disciples did not fully understand the full meaning of that day, WE DO!! It did not take them long to better understand Christ's teachings, and they finally "got it". Thankfully we can experience the same resurrection in our lives every day.
Christ gave the Great Commandment: Love your neighbors as I have loved you.
I pray that we "try" every day to fulfill that commandment and love every one, unconditionally, as Christ loved us. As followers of Christ, it is our duty to love unconditionally, and that means accepting ALL regardless of race, color, creed, orientation, the rich, the poor, the unclean, the outcasts. Christ loved them all without exception.
I am so thankful that my God is such an awesome and wonderful God.
