For all Christians, Easter is a festive celebration because Jesus died on the cross so we can all be saved. As we celebrate and observe the resurrection of Jesus Christ, I cant help but think, have I been a worthy Christian? It's funny how I, sometimes.., eerrrrr.., most of the time, seem to forget the very essence of this day because more often than not I tend to backslide. Yes.., I'm a sinner. No, I wont point back at you. You should be the one to admit that to yourself.(Come on admit it too.., hehe)Seriously though, I know I have a lot to be thankful for in my life. God is so good! He has continued to shower me with blessings despite all my indulgence. I may not be as privileged as some people are but I am contented with what I have. I thank God for all the blessings that He has given me. He knows how immoral I have been but that didn't stop Him from providing our daily needs.
Now as we celebrate another Easter, I trust that we will continue to try to live in His teachings. I dont want to sound preachy or self righteous here.., hey I'm a sinner. But personally, it doesn't really matter how many times we fall, what matters most is how many times we bounce back after each fall and we should acknowledge that God is with us in whatever things that we do. I pray that we will be continuously blessed. I wish you and your family the most joyful and meaningful easter celebration.
HAPPY EASTER!!!
I feel what you feel many many times and know for a fact that I can def do a better job at being His child. Room for improvement is vast and deep. =p Well, just wanted you to know that you're not alone out there. ;) Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you. Yes, we are all sinners and the best way to show that we have change is that we continue to do good and continuously ask for forgiveness on past sins.
ReplyDeleteA nice reflection.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is more important to count the times you have dusted yourself off rather than those you have bitten the dust.
