As one of my friends wrote on Facebook, “Yep, Jesus died and was risen three days later as a white rabbit that delivers eggs to small children around the world.”
Not exactly, but his sarcasm contains hints of truth – Jesus came to give us life abundantly, and while an Easter basket is only a small token of Christ’s material provision, it’s a fun illustration of his everlasting love that abounds in the hearts and minds of His followers each and every day.
“Don’t be alarmed – you are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen!” ♥ Mark 16:6 ♥
