“But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb taking the spices they had prepared. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While the were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel. And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, ‘Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen…'” Luke 24:1-6 (ESV)

Because he is risen, my sins are washed away.

Because He is risen, the Holy Spirit now lives in me.

Because he is risen, I have an advocate at the right hand of the Father.

Because he is risen, I have all that I need.

Because He is risen, my life now has no end.

Because He is risen, I have a heavenly home with God.

Because he is risen, I will see my cherished loved ones again.

Because he is risen, I have hope, peace, purpose and joy.

Because he is risen, the Bible is true.

I pray that you and your family  have a glorious and meaningful Easter as you celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
