Easter Eggs and Jesus’ Love
Have you ever hidden Easter eggs for your family or at a community or church gathering? The origin of hiding eggs came from pagan festivals, celebrating new birth in the spring, but early Christians used this activity to demonstrate Jesus’ emergence from the tomb, resurrection and the new birth He offers to anyone who believes in Him.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
– John 14:6 ESV
Easter is a time that we can reflect on the love of Christ and know that He is the cornerstone of our faith and the reason for our hope. Jesus’ love is simple and beyond total comprehension. He demonstrated the love He offers by walking a pure life and giving His life on the cross so you can have eternal life. His love can heal, restore and transform your life. When you experience His love and accept Him as Savior, you will never be the same.
Easter is also a time to celebrate Christ’s vibrant actions. It is a day for remembering His grace. His grace is supernatural and can motivate you to serve others, forgive and extend grace and mercy.
Christ’s love will fill you with His unquestionable love beyond your understanding.
His boundless love, when received by you, will bubble up, overflow and encourage you to live a life of purpose that brings glory to Him. This overwhelming experience, guided by the Holy Spirit, will help you be a light in a dark world for others to see the Lord’s love and grace.
Embracing His love unlocks your full potential. When you allow yourself to be consumed by His love, you can overcome obstacles, endure challenges and find peace and joy in the midst of unrest.
