Joyous!
Happy Easter!
I hope you feel the joy and hope that this day and season bring. Easter reminds us that life continues beyond this world because of Christ.
What does the joy and hope of Easter mean to you? Take a moment to pause, take a deep breath, and smile! Reflect on what brings you joy. Is it family? Friends? The birth of a child? And what gives you hope?
Often, we are overwhelmed by media messages that present a dismal view of the future and claim that “I” have the answer! It can be challenging to find hope in such times. If there is one person who can make our future brighter, it’s Jesus!
Last Friday, we experienced the pain and hopelessness felt by the disciples. Today, we celebrate the hope and joy of the Resurrection. If we have walked with Jesus over the past few weeks, reflecting genuinely on our lives, changing what needs to be changed, and asking for forgiveness for our sins, it’s time to look toward the future with confidence and hope.
Easter is not just a single day; it’s a season. Let us strive to carry the hope and joy we feel today into each of the coming weeks. Let’s seek out those things, moments, and people that bring us joy and celebrate them daily. Today, our cups overflow with joy and hope; let’s ensure they don’t dry.
