“…Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed”  ~John 20:29

Resurrection Sunday is a day where we, as Christians, take time to remember the cruel death that Christ died on our behalf and the awesomeness of His resurrection.  It’s usually a day filled with family gatherings, pictures, and our “Sunday best”.

As I thought about this day and reflected on it’s significance, I thought about the many people who only take time to acknowledge the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus on this day every year.  I was also overwhelmingly aware that this year, Good Friday was scarcely observed and the impact of Easter seemed somewhat diminished in the “general public”.  A sign of the times……

Friends, I believe more than ever before that we are living in the last days.  As I watch Bible prophecy being fulfilled, I am convinced that I will be alive to see Jesus come back for His people.

We must not forget the awesomeness of the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior.  We must not forget that over 2000 years ago, our faces were clear in His mind as he chose to hang on an old, rugged cross and give his life in place of ours.  We must not forget that it is only because of Him that we have the promise of eternal life.

I want to encourage you today….The Word says that we are to be “in the world not of the world”.  Let us not allow ourselves to get so busy and “caught up” with our duties and responsibilities that we forget our Lord.  Take time every day – not just at Easter or Christmas – to spend time with God.  He deserves our worship!
