Easter's Choice

He lived. A sinless life. Son of Man. Son of God. He chose to give Himself, the only acceptable sacrifice. For me and for you. His death gave to us the way to God. No other way. No other choice.

His resurrection. Our hope. Not just ours, but hope for the whole world. Because He loves the whole world.

Atheists. Agnostics. Buddhists. Hindus. Muslims. Jews. All who are lost.

God loves.

Gave His precious Son. His One and Only.

He loves.

You and me.

He forgives.

You and me.

He gives power.

To you and to me.

He gives hope.

To you and to me. To the world.

Jesus Christ. Yeshua. Messiah. Anointed One. Promised One. Living Hope. Hope of the world.

Easter's choice.

He chose us, sweet girl. He chose us.

Are we choosing Him?

I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in His sufferings, becoming like Him in His death (Philippians 3: 10).

  7. So beautiful, Deb! And very moving! I hope to always choose Him. It's very humbling and eye-opening to think of choosing as a moment by moment project. Without Jesus, I get overwhelmed, but thank God for grace!!!

    Take care, sweet friend! I appreciate you!

    Love,

    Andrea

  8. Sis,

    All of my life, I've watched you love like He does. When it hurt. When it would have been so easy to quit. But you didn't.

    I want to be just like you.

    Sweet dreams.

  14. It is true, what Christ went through was a choice from the start.

    He didn't have to go through all that, but He chose to.

    Happy Resurrection week to you, dear sister.

    Love
