It's week 3 and I'm getting excited as Resurrection Sunday is coming up, this Sunday to be exact! Have you been contemplating the death of Jesus? I know I have and it's been humbling and convicting. But knowing that He took victory over our sin and death....that's comforting. We are so blessed! Let's live lifes for Him today. Put all aside and serve God, serving Him is never useless!

This week we are going to learn about "Why the Resurrection Matters?"..

Here is this weeks Challenge:

Read Luke 24 –the resurrection account of Jesus.  Stand in AWE!!!  Whatever you are facing today – take it to Jesus. He is alive! He loves you and He wants you to bring all your burdens to Him.

Why Easter Matters {Week 2} ~ What the crucifixion means for us

This week I am changing up its more of a reflection....and because I missed putting up on Monday.

" What the Crucifixion means for us"

Week 2: Challenge:

Because of what Christ did for us on the cross, we are no longer slaves to the sins in our lives that so easily entangle us. We now can have God’s forgiveness of our sins, embrace the grace He extends and look forward to our hope of heaven. Despite what is going on around us in this world, we have a bright future to look forward to when we get to heaven. This week focus on what Christ’s crucifixion means to you and how you are going to honor Jesus with the new life, the second chance,  you have been given. Write it out and share it with your group or a friend.

Reflection on the Challenge: This was very humbling as I have been struggling with a few things, my heart was becoming callus. Looking around at things I began to get disappointed and angry at why some Christians do things intentionally or for their own good. I began to look at their faults, flaws, and began to get these impressions in my head of them. But I started to realize that I need not take certain things personal it's their walk that is failing not mine and that I need to pray for them. Only God knows what they are going through and struggling with as I am. I need to have grace and mercy towards them and also forgiveness. If God forgave me how much more do I need to forgive them. Easy right? I wish it was, it's a daily dying to flesh process. Just like the bible says " We need to crucify our flesh daily". Jesus gave me a new life, a second chance and I'm not going to blow on some measly senseless things. I am going to honor him by giving this to Him and allowing Him to work in my heart and seeing others as He sees them. And then pray for those who are struggling.
