What does Easter mean to you?

Do you think about bunnies and eggs? How about peeps and baskets? I guess in a way, we all do to some extent, but I don't have to be reminded what Easter really means.


To me, it means knowing that my faith isn't just a waste of time, that I am justified by what Jesus did for us on that cross, and most importantly, it means that because of the suffering that Jesus went through and because of his resurrection, I will have eternal life.

What a celebration we should all have everyday just thinking about this! WOW! 

I'm not with my family, except for Jason, because I am 2 hours away at Duke. I can't go to church in the morning because, well, I'm in the hospital... But, other than not having Casey here with us, these things don't really matter right now. Jason and I will celebrate here in our room.. giving thanks to God for giving us his only Son to suffer death on the cross and for his resurrection so that we can have eternal life!

I enjoyed reading the following Easter devotion.. I hope you will too. Just click here.
