The Power Behind Easter

During his fifth year of life, my eldest grandson, Nathan, was in the midst of a Bible study with his mother.  He found it humorous that the powers that be would roll a gigantic stone in front of the opening to the tomb of Jesus and post guards in an effort to thwart God’s plan.  Oh, the purity of youth.  At the age of five, Nathan couldn’t fathom the existence of people who didn’t believe in God.  In his young mind, he didn’t realize the purpose of the stone and guards was to prevent the friends of Jesus from removing the body of Christ to stage the prophesied resurrection.  More importantly, can you see the faith this little boy had in God, in Jesus, in God’s power and His plan to save the world.

Jesus himself told us that all a person needs to go to Heaven is the faith of a small child.  Do you have that much faith?

HAPPY EASTER!
