Can you believe Easter is here again? It's that time of year when we're surrounded by the scent of blooming flowers and the promise of new beginnings. But amidst all of the egg hunts and chocolate bunnies, let's take a moment to reflect on the meaning of Easter as a Christian.

Easter isn't just about the goodies; it's about Jesus, plain and simple. It's about the incredible love He showed us by sacrificing Himself for our sake. That kind of love is simply beyond human comprehension! It's a reminder that no matter what we've done, we're forgiven, and we're loved beyond measure. The more time I have spent on this Earth, the more I have realized what a powerful sacrifice our creator made for us! Jesus loves ME. Wow.

And let's not forget about the importance of family this season. Easter is a time to gather with our loved ones, share good food, and make memories together. It's about appreciating the people who stand by us through thick and thin, reminding us that we're never alone in this crazy journey called life.

For those of you reading this who are enshrouded in sadness, anger, or loneliness, my prayer for you is one of restoration. I pray that God reveals his love to you in a way that leaves no room for doubt in your heart. I pray that His peace that passes all understanding settles into your life like a warm blanket and wraps you in warmth through this sacred holiday.

So, as we soak in the joy of Easter, let's keep these things in mind:

1. "Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Don’t let your heart be troubled or fearful." - John 14:27 (CSB)

2. "Above all, maintain constant love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins." - 1 Peter 4:8 (CSB)

3. "How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony!" - Psalm 133:1 (CSB)

These verses remind us to hold onto peace, shower each other with love, and cherish our bonds with family.

In light of this holiday, I've got some exciting news to share! I've just added a new "Peace, Love, Peeps" SVG graphic to my store. It's a fun way to celebrate Easter and spread some joy wherever you go.
