Easter Reflection
In Jamaica, we love to eat our bun and cheese and fish during Easter time. For others, it may be about the Easter bunny and going egg hunting or scavenger hunting. Before the pandemic, it would be a time of reveling and partying especially in Jamaica.
Let's use this time to reflect on a few things. Let's reflect on our lives and know that tomorrow is not promised to anyone. A lot of lives have been lost due to COVID-19. My condolences goes out to all who lost a loved one. 🙏
Where would your soul go when you die? Let's be honest, some of us haven't given this a thought but it's very important. God loved us so much that He sent his son, Jesus to die for us all to save us from our sins. By His blood, we are redeemed, we are made new. Once we give our life to Christ, we are a new creation. We are set free and when we die our souls go to Heaven.
If you haven't watched 'The Passion of the Christ' by Mel Gibson, I implore you to watch it and you will understand the depths of God's love for us.
I will leave you with two scriptures to read:
John 3:16 NIV - For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
1 Corinthians 15: 12-16 NIV - But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either.
Let's give God thanks for all He has done. He is worthy to be praised. Happy Easter!
