April 5, 2015 Easter Sunday

2 Corinthians 5:  15 And he died for all, so that those who live might live no longer for themselves, but for him who died and was raised for them.

Paul is telling about life eternal. He speaks of our earthly tent, and he says we groan while we are here, longing for our eternal home.  He talks about the new creation. We are blessed to be part of that. 

It seems appropriate to consider resurrection today. God sent His son, who suffered and died, but today begins the new creation. Now we live our lives for him, so that we can look our Saviour eye to eye in our eternal home. 

Prayer: Lord, You have done so much for me. Today I rejoice and celebrate Your son's resurrection and all that means for people of faith worldwide. Thanks for the best Easter gift ever. 
Amen
