Isn't it funny how we make Christmas a bigger holiday then Easter? Easter is a huge holiday and yet so often we don't celebrate it as much as Christmas. Easter isn't at all about about the Easter egg hunts, Easter bunny, chocolate candy, or even the empty tomb. It's totally 100% about Jesus and God (and remember, Jesus was totally God and also 100% man). It's about how Jesus was right and that He really is the only God. What he said really was real, Who He was, really was genuine. It's about His power, His truth in who He said He was. It's about His love for us. He loved us so much He went to the cross and rose from the grave for us. It's about how we don't live with and serve a God in the grave but we serve a living God!! We have a God who has more power then anything, even death. Always remember that we serve a living God!!!
Read the Easter story today, maybe from a different gospel or from another translation. (You can find it Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, and John 20. Perhaps you can choose a verse that stands out to you and memorize it.
We have chosen holidays to celebrate things, Jesus' birth, Easter...but we can thank God anytime for what He did.

Staring at the girl in the mirror, I reach up to touch my face. Then, suddenly, my heart begins to race. Because, you see, I don’t recognize the girl starting back at me. But I realize I’m looking into her soul where she has kept everything hidden under lock and key.

About the girl in the mirror
- Anna
- I love Jesus. I am defined by Christ alone. Not by the face staring back at me in the mirror, not by my mistakes, not by who I pretend to be. Without Christ, I am nothing. I want to spend my life falling in love with Jesus and serving Him.

It is sad, how we often make a bigger deal over a holiday that people have deformed into something else. Easter and Christmas are equally important. Jesus dies, and Jesus lives (:
Where is the Easter story located in the Bible?
I put in my post where it was at in the Bible. But it's sad how alotta people don't really know the true meaning of Christian holidays. How are you?
THE CONCERT WAS AWESOME!
