Not just that Christ is risen, but that it made possible for all of us to rise and join Him for eternal glory! It is the rising from the death Christ endured for each & every one of us, not in some abstract way but in the most personal, direct way to each & every one of us. He made that sacrifice knowing you intimately even before birth. He endured all that pain, suffering & worldly death for me & you specifically!
I know I often need to remind myself not to think of this so much as a "general pardon" as it is instead deeply personal and direct to all of His children. And yes, we are children of God. There is no greater love than what God the Father & Christ our Savior has for us, His children!
I hope you all are able to celebrate this greatest of gifts today feeling the warm, loving embrace of Our Lord & Savior in the deeply personal way it is given to you.
Happy Easter, everybody!
