This Easter weekend, we are reminded of the suffering and sacrifice that Jesus willingly endured to give us salvation.
He did this so that we could be freed from our sins and receive eternal life.
As we reflect on the cross, we see suffering, pain, and death. And while those are all true, hope and love shine through this message. Because while there was death at the cross. We know that there is resurrection and new life through this death.
Sometimes, we are required to lay things down at the foot of the cross. So that new life and resurrection can happen in us.
We can lay down depression, anxiety, fear, pride, and anything that keeps us from receiving our resurrection in Him.
But you have to be willing to let some things die, and it's not going to be easy. There will be pain and suffering. Rest assured, there will be growth as you rise into the new He has for you.
Go to the cross, kneel down at His feet, and lay things down to rest.
And..wait, for resurrection is coming!
