Easter: a long weekend, a family getaway, easter bunny, chocolate eggs & hot cross buns - to many this is what this upcoming weekend is about, a chance to get things done in the garden before winter takes its hold, a chance to get away with the family before the weather is cold.
For me though, it is about Jesus, our Saviour who died on the cross at Calvary to save us all. He took all the sins of world upon his death, so that through Him we have the choice to have eternal life. This is just so amazing, it does seem almost unfathomable but it is so real. I chose Christ as my Lord and Saviour over 20 years ago, and through my teens and uni I continued to follow and believe in Him, though at times thin on my part I always knew He was there, keeping me safe and on the right path in life.
It is just so awesome God's love for us all, every single person in this world, that over 2000 years ago He sent his son as a baby to grow and live in this world, to then die on the cross, to bear all our sins so that we have a choice to follow him.
My husband and I still buy each other easter eggs and the 'easter bunny' delivers them to us on Sunday morning. But we recognise the real impact that Easter brings.

Good Friday can change your life too!! Simply start with believing
Christ died for us, for the sins of the world and then he rose from death, Jesus' tomb is empty!!!
To know real love, real peace is to accept Jesus into your life. He will never forsake, he will rescue you from a spiritual death and from eternal death. I know that my life would never be the same without Christ in my life and understanding what God did for us, what His son did for us. It can be yours too, just ask and follow, believe.
