Easter Sunday: How choose you?
Have you noticed there is an “in your face” aspect to Easter Sunday? We are challenged to choose what we will do with the Jesus Christ whose resurrection is so boldly proclaimed on this special day. Easter brusquely confronts believer and non-believer alike with this crucial choice: Do I believe in the resurrection or do I not? Is there room in my life for the supernatural, or is there not? Fence straddling is not permitted by the rules of logic or of faith. Indifference is deciding by default that there is no room in my life for the risen Jesus.
Holy week is over for another year, and this is Easter Sunday, 2010. With countless believers everywhere, I respond to my Pastor’s proclamation that “Jesus Christ has risen!” with a joyful and heartfelt affirmation that “He is risen, indeed!”
Dave, affirming the choice he made on another Easter Sunday so many years ago.
