Easter Blessings to you and your family! What a special day it is today for those of us who celebrate Easter in it's truest form. This week at the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge it is no different, the lovely Traci has chosen this scripture for us:
"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." Hebrews 12:2-3
Traci's challenge is to make a joy-ful card; something celebratory!
On Easter Sunday, Resurrection Sunday as it is known we celebrate the fact that Jesus Christ has Risen from the Dead. His death on the cross and the shedding of His Blood brought our salvation! He rose from the dead conquering sin and death - what an amazing time in His-story!! What a Saviour! In a world that is looking for answers and for hero's - is there any greater than Jesus - He truly is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!!
Religion is man's search for God, I love the fact that Christianity is the only religion where God reaches down to man - and that makes it personal, all about relationship - a matter of the heart! Knowing this, we can declare:
He is Risen - He is Risen indeed!

There is nothing more symbolic, and no greater reason to celebrate than the Cross, especially as we celebrate Easter, It is firstly the place where our Saviour was crucified for all mankind and the forgiveness of our sins through His blood that was shed for our salvation.
