A Joyous Hopeful Easter 2022

SonofThunder · April 17, 2022, 06:58:41 AM

I simply want to wish all my Out of the FOG comrade friends, a joyous, hopeful Easter 2022!

This season is one of the victorious power in the resurrection and hope that Christ promises his creation not only in eternity, but right now, living, surviving and strongly thriving among living in very difficult situations.

His power over death energizes me to be a truth-fighter, even in the midst of desiring what is best for myself and others (love). His power reassures me he fully understands manipulation, attempts at control, gaslighting, hypocrisy, hate, hurt, insults, empty covenants and the list goes on.

I thank Christ for his love for me, his creation. I thank Christ for coming to a created world that has taken advantage of the very freedom he gifted in love and suffered SO greatly in order to rescue me. I thank Christ for you, my Out of the FOG comrades and friends.

Wishing you and this wonderful community a joyous and hopeful Easter as well, SonofThunder!

I am humbled by the love, ultimate sacrifice, and tender care for us that is shown in this passage: Isaiah 43:4-5

"Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed."

Thank you for this reminder and the encouragement we have in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! It's easy to feel hopeless, but today is a great reminder that He knows how we feel, he bore the pain of all of our sins, and there is nothing we experience that He can't relate to. Praise God!

Happy Easter to all!

Amen user! Thanks for sharing.
