Last year I’ve blogged about Easter, and how the celebration is not about Easter eggs and bunnies.

I was heavily considering if I should post about Easter and if I do so, what should I post about. I’ve gotten a release this morning on if I should blog and what I should blog about.

Since this is a Christian Holiday I’ll delve into Christianity a little. The day today that is being celebrated is the basis of Christianity. This is where it all started. I did not start with the birth of Jesus, nor His crucifixion which are also very important dates but it however started here at Easter at His resurrection. What good would His birth be if He didn’t choose to die for us? What good would his death be if He didn’t rise from the dead with all power (Hell, Death and the Grave) in his hand.

We agree that God, the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are three different people but however still at the same time they’re one. We might also agree that God is omniscient, that’s just a fancy word for all knowing. Do we agree that he is omnipotent? OK, I hope you’re not confused by now as this is not really easy to comprehend with the human mind. This is very spiritual.

Since God the father is the same God the son and is omniscient, means that he knew what his purpose here on earth was, besides he came into this earth fully aware of all the hard times and heartaches he would have to go through. He however left all the luxuries of heaven to come to earth and endure all He’s endured for mankind.

Can you wrap your mind around the thought? YOU are so special that He left all the luxuries in heaven to come to earth and die for mankind. He thinks really high of you. Reading this part I thought of two things:

1. Would you love someone so much that you can return the favor back to them? Leaving all luxuries behind, to be ridiculed, falsely accused, cursed, spat upon, beaten and finally crucified? That must’ve taken allot of love. We at times don’t even want to leave from behind the TV to give a neighbor a ride down the street in the pouring rain.

2. If God thinks so high of you, why do you allow other people to disrespect you and treat you like dirt all in the name of love. If you’re in a relationship and your partner abuse you verbally or physically simply means it’s time for you to move on as you totally don’t deserve it and he/she don’t really love you as you don’t abuse a loved one.

You are special to God and me.

Happy Easter,
