“The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.” Romans 8:11
Today is Easter, a day for remembering the sacrifice given to us through Jesus’ death. It’s a day for us to remember that Jesus took away our sins, but it’s also a day for us to remember that God’s miraculous redemption power is still alive and in practice today.
When we feel discouraged, sad, or just generally down, we can remind ourselves that God’s Spirit lives in us, restoring life to our minds, our emotions and our physical bodies. Resurrection Sunday is more than about simply remembering Jesus’s death and resurrection this day many years ago, but it’s also about celebrating His resurrection and restoring power in our lives every day.
I’m so thankful for this day that reminds me that when things feel like they are hopeless and beyond gone, that God has the last word and the last move and specializes in bringing things back to life ❤️ Happy Easter to you and your family!
