Wishing all our eLanka members a SAFE and happy Easter!
It is important to remember to take the time this Easter to care for ourselves, and reach out (albeit remotely) to those we love at this time, to wave to a neighbour, call those who may be anxious, and bring a bit of hope in this time of crisis.
THE RESURRECTION
We hold so close to our hearts the cross where Jesus died,
But so much more than the blood-stained cross is that Jesus came back to life.
The stone’s been rolled away, the tomb lay open and bare
They looked for Him, and then the angel said that He is no longer here
Oh what joy they must have felt to see Him just once more
To eat with Him, to drink with Him, to receive Him back as Lord.
So much did He accomplish through His death upon the cross
And in His rising from the dead He reconciled us back to God.
Nothing else could bridge the gap that sin had wrenched apart.
Now we can freely go to God and receive Christ in our hearts.
