Easter Sunday

Easter is the biggest surprise of the year. No one expected it the first time. People came to Jesus's tomb looking to anoint  a dead body. Instead, they found an empty tomb - the only empty tomb that ever existed.
Sometimes, children grasp the implications of Easter better than adults. this reminds me of the story of an elementary school teacher talking to her class about the death of Jesus. She asked the children: "What was the last words that Jesus spoke before he died?" One little insightful girl put up her hand and simply said, "I'll be back." What a profound message for Easter. Happy Easter.
