FEELING LOST?

“Take every thought captive to obey Christ.”
2 Corinthians 10:5

If you are lost – outside the spiritual flow of God’s good – you need to get back on course and follow Divine direction. You pray for God’s will in your life and know it is the best direction. God’s will is for your life to be rich and fulfilled. Any problem lies in our limited ability to perceive the greater good that is available to us from God.

For example, the healing need may be for a strained relationship that has left you in anguish. You may pray that the relationship be restored to what was prior to the pain. Perhaps this is in your best interest and that of the other person’s best interest, but what if it is not?

We need to remind ourselves to pray, believing that the healing of the situation and the perfect outworking of the relationship will come about. This may mean that we need to release the other person to go his or her own way; but if that should happen, we know that God has a wonderful way of filling the empty places of our hearts.

Some of us may feel that we are willing to accept God’s answers, but we are not sure that our prayers are heard. We may feel that God is still so far away as to be hidden, or even unreachable. At such times, it is easy to fall into childlike ways of thinking of God. We may contribute human qualities to God and think that God has more important things to contend with than our personal needs. We may plead, cajole, or try to bargain for God’s favor, especially if we feel unworthy. The feeling of unworthiness comes from a belief that we can be separated from God.

Through our awareness of God’s presence, we align ourselves with the source of constant, renewing energy. Prayer and meditation are two ways of bringing ourselves into this conscious awareness of God’s presence. Prayer is not an attempt to convince God of our worthiness to experience the best in any area of our lives. Prayer is our conscious attunement to spiritual power; it is stilling ourselves and readying ourselves to receive.

In the midst of a stressful situation, we may find it difficult to still our minds, because our minds are so filled with concern. When we are able to quiet ourselves enough, we will feel receptive to God. Many of us have at some time, experienced fear and the feeling of isolation so overwhelming that it was difficult to raise our thoughts and feelings above anguish. However, in the Psalms, David tells us, “God is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalms 46:1

Try saying, today, aloud in prayer, “God is my refuge and strength – my ever-present help.” This is highly beneficial, even if at first the words seem mechanical. They help you get your thought removed from challenge and to focus on the power of God with you right now.

Declarations of truth can be taken from the Bible, such as, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” Psalms 23:1

“I fear no evil; for thou art with me.” Psalms 23:4

Our lives are directed in a flawless manner as we follow the perfect, ever present guidance of God.

“What deeds of power are being done by His hands!”
Mark 6:2

A preacher is winding up his temperance sermon with great fervor. “If I had all the beer in the world, I’d take it and throw it into the river!” he shouts.

The congregation cries out, “Amen!”

“And if I had all the wine in the world, I’d take it and throw it in the river!”

The congregation cries, “Amen!”

By now, worked into frenzy, the preacher yells, “And if I had all the whiskey and demon rum in the world, I’d take it all and throw it in the river!”

And the congregation again cries, “Amen!”

The preacher sits down, exhausted. Then the deacon stands up and calmly announces, “And now, for our closing hymn, let us turn to page 126 and sing, ‘We shall gather at the river.'”

_________

While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage. The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because, attached to the back of the carriage was a hand-printed sign … “Energy efficient vehicle. Runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not step on exhaust.”

_________

A minister waited in line to have his car filled with gas just before a long holiday weekend. The attendant worked quickly, but there were many cars ahead of him at the service station. Finally, the attendant motioned him toward a vacant pump. “Reverend,” said the young man, “sorry about the delay. It seems as if everyone waits until the last minute to get ready for a long trip.” The minister chuckled, “I know what you mean. It’s the same in my business.”

_________

Somebody has well said that there are only two kinds of people in the world. There are those who wake up in the morning and say, “Good morning, Lord,” and there are those who wake up in the morning and say, “Good Lord, it’s morning.”

_________

One Sunday, after church, Mom asked her very young daughter what the lesson was about. Her daughter answered “Don’t be scared, you’ll get your quilts.” Needless to say, Mom was perplexed. Later in the day, the Pastor stopped by for tea. Mom asked him what that morning’s Sunday school lesson was about. He said “Be not afraid, the comforter is coming.”

From the cowardice that dare not face new truth,

Good Lord, deliver me. Amen.

“O Lord … My spirit within me earnestly seeks You.”
Isaiah 26:8-9

When you are DOWN to nothing … God is UP to something! Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible, and receives the impossible! Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!

________

A Church-goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. “I’ve gone , Since 1999, now,” he wrote, “and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can’t remember a single one of them. So, I think I’m wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all.”

This started a real controversy in the “Letters to the Editor” column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:

“I’ve been married , Since 1999, now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this … They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!”

Judge Gently

Author Unknown

Pray don’t find fault with the man who limps
or stumbles along the road,
unless you have worn the shoes he wears
or struggled beneath his load.
There may be tacks in his shoes that hurt,
though hidden away from view,
or the burden he bears, placed on your back
might cause you to stumble too.
Don’t sneer at the man who’s down today
unless you have felt the blow
that caused his fall or felt the shame
that only the fallen know.
You may be strong, but still the blows
that were his if dealt to you,
in the selfsame way, at the selfsame time,
might cause you to stagger too.
Don’t be too harsh with the man who sins
or pelt him with word or stone,
unless you are sure, yea, doubly sure,
that you have no sins of your own –
for you know perhaps if the tempter’s voice
should whisper as softly to you
as it did to him when he went astray,
it might cause you to stumble too.

God’s Will is a lot like dancing.

When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn’t flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky.

When one person realizes the dance and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music.

One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back, or by pressing lightly in one direction or another. It’s as if two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one person, and gentle guidance and skill from the other.

GUIDANCE. When I saw “G,” I thought of God, followed by “u” and “i.”

God, “u” and “i” dance!

God, you, and I dance.

This statement is what guidance means to me.

Become willing to trust that you will get guidance about your life.

Become willing to let God lead.

Dance together with God, trusting God to lead and to guide you through each day of your life.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, if I may be walking through fields that are rough with grief and care, may I have the courage to continue on to the smooth pastures, where I may walk with comfort and peace.
May I not let the weariness that may come to me dwarf my hope and enjoyment of the future.

Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:

I expect a miracle!!!

Positive Daily Inspiration – April 5, 2024 – LOOKING FOR EMPLOYMENT?

Positive Daily Inspiration - April 5, 2024
LOOKING FOR EMPLOYMENT?

LOOKING FOR EMPLOYMENT?

“And whatsoever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.”
Colossians 3:23

The source of all your good is God. People are more successful when they work directly for God instead of for men and women. I invite you to know this secretly within yourself for it helps empower you and can give you purpose.

If you are looking for a job, you are no doubt answering ads, going to job interviews and sending out resumes. During this time, you become willing to listen to anything that might help you find a job.

You have God-given inner gifts, powers and abilities. There is a verse in Proverbs, Proverbs 18:16, which says, “A human’s gift makes room for them and brings them before great people.” If you’re looking for work for the first time, or if you’re the one who feels that you can do more than your present job entails, or if you have been laid off – there is a right and perfect place for you. As you pray to God to be guided to your right place, it may be that you will find it in progressive steps. If you need prosperity to pay bills you may need to take any kind of job you can find. Even if you take a job that does not use your skills, abilities or education, your “gift” will make room for you. Your truly right place will open to you because you are doing a right spirit and a good attitude to whatever it is you find to do.

Sometimes persons who have taken temporary jobs out of necessity have found that such jobs led to their perfect employment.

Sometimes their gift created a new job for them, in the most unlikely of places. Other persons have found that faith in their God-given abilities and their confidence in the power of God at work in them, wherever they found themselves, opened the way to perfect employment. With God’s help, you will be moved from the unsuitable job into the place for which you are eminently suited.

Do not limit yourself by believing that there are closed doors to your good. Do not believe that prosperity and success are not for you, that others get all the breaks and advantages. You are endowed with powers and abilities. You have the gift of God’s Spirit with you and working through you.

You may not realize what your real gift is. There are persons who have been so firmly convinced of what they felt was their talent that it took job changes and disappointments to bring them to the place of open-mindedness where they found their true self and realized what their real gifts and abilities were.

In looking for work, affirm in faith and conviction that God has need of you and that employers have need of you. Give thanks that right now the way is opening to employment for you. Give thanks that every experience you pass through adds to your growth and increases your worth and value.

God’s road is the road to success. Follow God, and do not be discouraged by detours or delays along the way. You are a successful child of God.

You are needed and important. You have something unique to give that no one else can offer. Your gift makes room for you, and God working through your gifts, powers and abilities ensure you your right place, your prosperity, and your sense of happy achievement.

Your need for work can be a turning point, a time not only for a new job, but a new attitude and a new outlook. God can open ways where there seems to be no way.

Now is the time to stir up your belief in God. Now is the time to shake off old negative habits of thoughts and feeling. Do not envy others. Do not daydream. Do not expect to get rich quick without effort. Use the abilities you have and make the most of what you have. You can succeed if you realize the power that God has given you.

_____________________________________

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I now know that You have need of me and that employers that You send to me have need of me.
I give thanks right now that the way is wide open to employment for me.
I give thanks that every experience I pass through adds to my growth and increases my worth and value.

In Jesus Christ name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:

I abide with God. God’s Divine order is established. God’s wisdom guides me in all that I do.

“I do beseech you to direct your efforts more to preparing youth for the path and less to preparing the path for the youth.”

FOUNTAIN OF LIFE

“For with you is the fountain of life.”
Psalms 36:9

If you ever doubt that you are a miracle in creation, take a moment to look at the wonder in your body.

Consider your hands: beneath the skin lies an intricate network of delicate bones and muscles that work in harmony with the brain. Think of the signals which must be set out and the responses which must happen in order for you to do even the simplest thing like punching a phone number into a telephone keypad of the cell phone. Think of the power that you have in your hands to touch another and uplift them.

Your heart and your lungs work 24 hours a day to supply the necessary blood and oxygen, you need. The brain works nonstop – controlling both physical and mental tasks – all with little or no conscious effort from you.

The attention to detail that God gave to your life is evident in you. So consider the wonders of your body and how it performs every day. Within you is the fountain of life, so you must become a fountain for life.

With these gifts that you have been given you must choose to give also. The simplest and perhaps the most profound gift that you can give others is a simple smile.

You create the fountain of life when you smile at another instead of frown. Perhaps there is no other sign in the world that conveys friendship, love and peace in a more universally understood way than a smile.

I was in a foreign country a short time back where I could not speak a word of their language, but I was understood through my smile and I understood their smiles. The smile is a message of acceptance and gladness from one person to another.

Choose this day to be a fountain of life wherever you go. Choose to smile today and let your smiles be an unmistakable statement about the wonder that you are. Show to others that you’re accepting and friendly. Use that miracle hand to reach out and wave to others. Use the miracle of your heart and lungs to empower you to make a difference in other people’s lives.

A simple facial expression becomes a fountain of life. The smile that you pour forth is happy today, uplifting thoughts that you release shining out into the atmosphere around you. It is as though you, you, are opening the window of your soul in order to fully experience the love of God. It is waiting to pour forth through you so that all can experience the wonder.

This day you are a fountain of life!

I know You can lift me up if I am ever low, or down or even depressed.
I know that no former human condition has any power over me this moment.

I do give thanks because You are with me.
How joyous I am that this is my day of discovery.

In Jesus Christ’s name I pray, Amen.

God's Harmony

“Love is the fulfilling of the law.”
Romans 13:10

Do you long for peaceful, harmonious relationships with the people in your home, neighborhoods, workplaces, and schools?

Of course, you do!

Because you want this, you give expression to Divine love in all your relationships. Truly. the Ph.D. of spirituality is to become loving ALL the time.

All love is from God. God’s love empowers you and indwells you. It is yours to express and radiate to each person with whom you associate.

Today, you are kind and courteous – you go the extra mile to be loving and not to react to discord. The harmony of God comes forth from within you, to ease every situation.

You are understanding and considerate, today. You are generous and warmhearted.

Christ’s love enables you to say and do what is most helpful in all your associations with other people.

Today, and every day, you are empowered by God to give expression to the loving Christ. In return, you receive friendly responses and loving cooperation, especially as those around you trust the actions of the “new” you.

The expression of Divine love, in every phase of your life, assures you of harmony and peace in your relationships. Divine love fills you and enriches your interactions with others.

If you find it difficult to be loving and compassionate to any certain person that may have mistreated you or ignored you, through God’s love, you can forgive and love again.

Let us remember that we are all children – inside adult bodies. We make mistakes and we say things that should not have been said, but how sad it would be to lock that child up, forever, in a prison of his or her mistake. We are here in this realm of life to love and to forgive.

Let us remember that Jesus exemplified love and compassion on the cross when he said: “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Luke 23:34

Jesus expanded the concept of forgiveness far beyond the understanding that prevailed at the time.

He knew that when people forgive those that hurt them, and have compassion for those who misunderstood them, they would find the sure path to spiritual unfoldment.

Through the personal empowerment of God’s love, you, too, can be loving and considerate and compassionate. You can forgive, readily and completely, when you are open to the inflow and outflow of the loving Christ. God’s love can do things through you, that you cannot do this moment on your own. God’s Love is like the ocean, you can see its beginnings but not its end.

_____________________________________

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Thank You God, for Divine love and for the ability to follow Your loving ways.

Amen.

Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

“Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while.”
Mark 6:31

Together in this awareness of the one Presence of God, we are going to pray together by first building ourselves in this prayer consciousness and then sending forth this prayer from this room to this tense world that we are living in at the current moment.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

We realize as we pray that it is not I, but the Christ who does the works. There is great power in prayer and in what prayer can do through us.

In Proverbs 2:9-10, it states, “Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equality, every good path; for wisdom will come into your heart and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.”

God’s Ideas are generating now inside of you. Spiritual Thought currents, as a fire under a boiler, generate steam. The idea is the most important factor in every act. It must be given first place in our attention if we would bring about any results of a permanent character. We ask for ideas of illumination to fill our own individual minds. God’s Divine Spirit of Truth guides our way. We are inspired to take right action.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

For the world, we know that the God’s Divine Spirit of Truth guides their way. And they are inspired to take right action in harmony, for the good of ALL.

We see right action being taken. We see a peace permeating through every individual mind, through the illumination of God.

We see a health that is happening in the world’s consciousness, not only inside of ourselves and our own body, but the body of all humanity. Because God is everywhere present, there is no lack of health anywhere, in any land or in any body.

Health is the wonderful way of God. How wonderful, how quickly our body responds to thoughts of God’s life and health. We feel a flow of health, instantly, if we hold the right spiritual thoughts.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

Just closing our minds to outer things and holding the thought that we are now perfect manifestations of the Divine Creator will often heal our body of its illnesses. Disease (dis – ease) is not natural. We must let it go. Relax into the ease of God. Let God’s Spirit carry on its perfect work in us. All at once, evil or sick conditions disappear, and we are whole.

For ourselves, we affirm that God’s Divine Spirit of health radiates through our bodies. We are well and strong. And there is a health in the world that is radiating the presence of God health throughout our world. We are well, and we are strong. Each of us, spiritually holding hands and walking together in the same world consciousness.

Through God’s Spirit of Truth, God moves the whole Creation. Hence, any human may constantly increase his or her understanding of the Source and the relation of all things by claiming their unity with the Spirit of God.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

We claim our unity and our oneness with God. We ask that we are each lights, beacons, broadcasting stations of uplifting, positive, spiritual consciousness to go out from this building and to surround our world with love. We ask people of like mind, of all religions, to join us in the thought of love. This is the true prosperity, an increase, an expansion in conscious awareness of God. We know that God’s Spirit of prosperity fills our minds, fills their minds, with productive ideas.

I am successful, and they are successful. We are successful in America and all other countries are successful. We walk together in that success. We are a part of all that is good, and they are a part of all that is good.

In this moment of tense conditions, we affirm with great consciousness that there is nothing to fear. We trust God in all that concerns us. God is our strength, the only strength.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

It is not financial might, but it is spiritual consciousness might. A consciousness of a oneness with God and a oneness with people around the earth. We are not afraid because we walk hand in hand with God, in love.

We decree in this hour that there is a holy help that is permeating the earth and everyone therein. There is a condition of peace.

All weather conditions now call forth peace. Peace rains throughout the earth. Ideas from God’s Divine Mind flood the minds of all humans everywhere telling of a new day with glorious open doors of possibilities.

We affirm together in the one consciousness of the one spiritual Power that God’s Divine love fills the hearts of all people, establishing peace, establishing understanding, harmony, and trust in the entire world.

The light of God surrounds us in the world climate. The love of God enfolds us in this world climate. The power of God protects us, each one of us, in this world climate. The presence of God infills each one of us and watches over each one of us. Wherever we are, wherever they are, God is.

Hold to this consciousness. Do not sway from it – the power of Jesus Christ.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

As a child of God, you are a manifestation of Divine love. It is filling your heart. It is establishing peace. Thoughts of peace, thoughts of understanding, thoughts of harmony, and thoughts of trust permeate your mind.

Each one of us, as we pray together, realizes that as we pray together, the Christ Spirit is here, the living Presence of Jesus Christ.

We know there is God’s Divine love that will fill the hearts of all people everywhere, establish peace everywhere, establish understanding everywhere, establish harmony everywhere, and establish trust everywhere in the world.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen.

Positive Daily Inspiration – April 1, 2024 – NO “FOOLS” IN GOD

Positive Daily Inspiration - April 1, 2024
NO "FOOLS" IN GOD

a gift from www.PositiveChristianity.net

──────────── • ● • ────────────

“Be still, and know that I am God.”
PSALMS 46:10

A “fool” could be defined as a person who becomes overly tense and anxious about some need or situation without going to God.

If we are honest, all of us have been “fools” at some time or another. If we take a moment away from our busy, rat-race lives, close our eyes, and rest in the silence – there we will find God.

Bless yourself with these words:

“Be still. Be still. Be still. Be still and know that I am God.”

You will find restoration and renewal in stillness. You will find freedom from anxiety in stillness. In stillness, you will find peace, relaxation, and ease of mind and body.

In any healing need, speak these words: “Be still. Be still. Be still. Be still and know that I am God. Be still and know that I am the life that heals. Be still and know that healing is taking place. Be still and know that I am God, that I am life.”

If there is a pressing financial need, you say these words to yourself: “Be still. Be still. Be still. Be still and know that I am God. I am the source of your supply. I am the fountain of abundance, endlessly flowing.

Be still. Be still. Be still. Be still and know that I am God. In Me, your every need is met.”

In Jesus Christ’s name. AMEN

God bless you! Make it a GREAT day!

Positive Daily Inspiration – March 31, 2024 – Happy Easter!

Positive Daily Inspiration - March 31, 2024
Happy Easter!

a gift from www.PositiveChristianity.net

──────────── • ● • ────────────

“As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!” But they were startled and frightened and thought they saw a spirit. And He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? See My hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch Me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.”
Luke 24:36-39

He is risen! Jesus did not die on the cross, at least not in the way that we perceive death. It was not the end, but another beginning. He lives!

A minister once said, “He made the greatest comeback in history.”

I have a challenge for you. Look through the four gospels of the Bible to try to find a funeral service that Jesus preached.

Before you look hard, I will tell you that you can look through all four gospels, through the entire three years of His ministry – and even before – and you will never find one time that Jesus taught or preached a funeral sermon. He broke up every funeral He ever attended; He told everyone there was more, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.”
John 11:25-26

One of the most mysterious things in our Holy Bible is the sentence in First Corinthians. In chapter 15, verse 26, it says, “The last enemy to be destroyed is death.” Do you know why? Because as you, or your loved ones pass over the threshold we call death, the enemy you have been thinking about as the end of your physical body, you’ll say: “This isn’t the end at all! This is just another beginning. I knew that Jesus could do it because He proved that He could, but I’m surprised that I can do it too!”

Death is not a period, but a comma in life.

You’ll find the death is not the end at all, but a continuation and another beginning for you and those you love.

Nearly all of us have experienced loss. Perhaps at this time of the year we are thinking about that dear one we lost and we feel sadness. But I challenge you to be like Mary outside the tomb and realize that life is continuing. Allow Jesus this Easter – as no other Easter in your life – to be the first fruit of your knowledge and belief of continuing life. It will give you great, great comfort. It is a knowledge that will fortify you.

When Jesus was on the cross, there were many Roman centurions there. One stood at His feet and looked at His face and saw compassion and love for Him there. The Roman centurion realized that, truly, this was God’s son. And truly He was!

The words of Jesus in Matthew 28:20 are a promise to each of us today, “And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

For Easter the emphasis shouldn’t be on that He died for us, or even that He IS living for us, BUT – ON US – LIVING FOR HIM!

Instead of getting sidetracked by the busyness of the day, I use these beloved images of Easter to remind me of the life of Jesus Christ.

It was the life of a message of the potential of the human race. It was the life of a theology of love, forgiveness, and all-inclusiveness.

It is an active theology of love that lives with Jesus instead of the old concept of “an eye for an eye.”

Jesus Christ lives a theology telling you that you are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. He came to uplift humanity and tell them of their potential as children of God.

His story has been called the greatest story ever told – and it is – because it is the story of not only of Jesus Christ, but his vision for each of us. Jesus Christ came to lift women and men out of self-imposed bondage, so that they could be set spiritually free.

This Easter, we are the spiritual pilgrims who come to worship at the temple.

We celebrate His life, and we celebrate our own rebirth of belief in what we can do as a child of God. We do have a new life in our awareness of God every time we consent to going higher through prayer, and then in our thinking and actions.

We ask ourselves this Easter, what would Jesus do? And we act accordingly.

______________________________________

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

I decree with undoubting faith, and acceptance:
Dear God, today, I remember and I praise the presence of Jesus Christ in my life, and in my Easter adventures.
I worship within myself by doing what Jesus Christ told me I could do and become.
I become “a sample of the great example.”
I celebrate the life of Jesus that continues this day. I vow to hold on to my belief.
I vow to have PEACE, because He has peace that can still a storm.
I vow to be LOVE, because He tells me this is the greatest commandment.
I vow to be JOYFUL, because He is joyful, and not plagued by the pressures and stress. I refuse to be brought down by the personal plagues of humanity.
I will live this day as if I am re-born (a new person) with the excitement, joy, and expectation of a child.
In Jesus Christ’s name (name means nature) … Amen
POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:

My life is a joy filled with delightful surprises.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE:

“Like success, failure is many things to many people. With Positive Mental Attitude, failure is a learning experience, a rung on the ladder, a plateau at which to get your thoughts in order and prepare to try again.”
W. Clement Stone

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to God’s great mercy, God has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”
1 Peter 1:3

We pray that you have a glorious Easter weekend, and we pray that it was just as much a celebration for every member of your family, especially the children.

When I was in a regular church ministry, after all the Easter week’s six services were complete, we would go across from the church to an area about 10 acres in size, where we would have a massive Easter egg hunt.

I cannot tell you the joy that we all felt while watching the little children, dressed up in their finest clothes, searching for the colored Easter eggs.

One year we gave the children wisdom from the Easter Bunny.

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.

The best things in life are still sweet and gooey.

Good things come in small packages.

Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.

There’s no such thing as too much candy.

Keep your paws off other people’s jellybeans.

Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.

An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.

All work and no play can make you a basket case.

The grass is always greener in someone else’s basket.

To show your true colors you have to come out of your shell.

Kids don’t care if some of your body parts are floppy.

Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.

This Easter, there are many beautiful displays of crosses in churches around the world.

The cross that I prefer is the empty cross. I believe this is the way crosses are meant to stand on Easter morning.

The whole message of Easter morning is the miracle that occurred. We need to take Jesus down from the cross, and realize He has risen, and begin to follow Him, and His teachings.

It takes courage to take Jesus down from the cross, because then we must look to Him, and what He said. Perhaps in doing this, it will make the miracle that happened over 2000 years ago come alive in our lives this Easter.

The Bible is a book of miracles. A miracle is defined as a natural event, but something we think is slightly out of our reach. On almost every page of the Bible, there are possibilities for you that we now call miracles.

In the 18th-century the United States Congress issued a special edition of the Bible called the Thomas Jefferson Bible.

What made it different was that it had the miracles deleted. What remained were just the moral teachings of Jesus.

The closing words of the Thomas Jefferson Bible are: “There laid they Jesus and rolled a great stone at the mouth of the sepulchre and departed.”

Thank God OUR Bible continues on to tell us He is risen!

We celebrate Easter because it is the death of death, through the death of Jesus Christ.

In olden times, every year in the Spring the high priest of the temple would conduct a prayer service in which the first fruits of the field would be waived in front of the crowds at the temple. Why would the first fruits of the field be included in prayer?

Because they were representative of what was to come from the barely seen stubbles in the fields; they were a specimen, a representative, a pattern. But more than that, they were a pledge of all the rest. In dying on the cross and resurrecting, Jesus was continuing to teach as He taught every day, teaching us that there is more to death than we can see with our physical eyes.

This story is told of Michelangelo many years ago. He visited all the great art galleries in Europe and became quite distressed. He saw picture after picture, literally hundreds of pictures, all depicting Christ dying on the cross. He knew the death experience of Jesus lasted only a short while. But to the end of unending eternity, Christ is alive. Christ rules and reigns and triumphs.
