Greetings from a beautiful Shenandoah Valley and Happy Easter.
Easter bunnies, baskets, candy, and frilly dresses are nice, but Easter is about so much more. If you are wondering about the spiritual meaning of Easter, you’ve come to the right place! While visions of Cadbury eggs and cuddly bunnies may sound delightful, the true meaning of Easter is infinitely more. The spiritual meaning of Easter feeds the soul. Spiritually speaking, Easter is a Christian holiday. Easter is a holy day honoring the most important event in Christianity. Scripture tells us that Jesus was put to death and buried. He then rose from the dead on the 3rd day. All of this was predicted throughout the Old Testament and by Jesus, himself. Easter celebrates Christ coming back to life. We celebrate because we have been rescued from sin and death and brought in to the family of God by this act of Jesus. Our failings have been paid for in full and we are connected to God forever in a way that was never done before this work of Christ at Easter. On a more personal level, Easter also means celebrating our life in Christ. Thanks for stopping by and checking in on us, now go enjoy your Easter Day.....
Dear Jesus, we need your peace. We believe that you died for our sins, and that God raised you from the dead so that by believing in you we can have peace with God and life in your name. Forgive us for allowing the cares of this world to obscure our spiritual vision. In Jesus’ Precious Name.....Amen
