10/31/2021 Today is a Sunday and as some pastors say it is a little Easter. Coming out of a Jewish lineage Christianity at first worshiped in the Temple or synagogue on Saturday, the seventh day which God declared a day of rest. But over time and persecution Christians began to worship on Sunday, the day of Easter. From the beginning Easter was an amazing source of hope and strength to the early Church. Easter also became the hope by which many came to Jesus. Easter is indeed the hope beyond hope!!!
This is an entry from my Hope Journal which helps me have hope, beyond hope.
Easter was not just a sign of hope but the revelation of God and of grace. Jesus died for the Jews and the Gentiles, for those who knew they needed Him and for those who didn’t as well as for the very people who crucified Him. Like me and you!!!
From my Grace Journal. It was suggested to start a Grace Journal as a reminder of our need not for agreement but grace to guide our relationships.
