HOW AWESOME IS
THIS DAY! YOU ROSE TRIUMPHANTLY. DEATH HAS NO MORE POWER OVER YOU AND NEITHER
OVER US!
AS SURE AS WITH EVERY SUNRISE AND SUNSET, SO, TOO, HAVE WE
DIED AND RISEN WITH CHRIST IN THE WATERS OF BAPTISM.
PRAISED BE OUR GOD, WHO, THROUGH JESUS’ DEATH AND RESURRECTION
HAS SET US FREE FROM SATAN’S SNARES.
PRAISED BE OUR GOD, WHO, ON CALVARY, POURED OUT HIS BLOOD UPON US, MARKING US AS ONE OF HIS OWN FOREVER. NO DESTRUCTIVE BLOW
WILL COME BETWEEN US AND GOD’S EVERLASTING LOVE FOR US.
YES, “I AM YOUR GOD AND YOU ARE MY PEOPLE,” SAYS THE LORD,
OUR GOD.
EVERY PERSON WHO BELIEVES IN JESUS AND REPENTS OF HIS/HER
SINFULNESS, AS DID THE GOOD THIEF ON THE CROSS, HEARS JESUS SAY ON THEIR DEATH
BED: “THIS DAY YOU SHALL BE WITH ME IN
PARADISE.”
AS THE FATHER HAS LOVED ME, SO DO I LOVE YOU. REMAIN IN MY
LOVE!
STAY CLOSE TO ME, AS I DO TO YOU ALWAYS UNTIL THE END OF
TIME.
THIS DAY, AND EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE, I INVITE YOU TO “EAT
OF THIS BREAD AND DRINK OF THIS WINE,” DOING THIS IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME.
EVER MINDFUL OF MY LOVE FOR YOU, I REJOICE IN YOU ALWAYS!
REMEMBER, I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU. YOU ARE MINE AND I AM
YOURS IN LIFE AND IN DEATH!
