Easter

Tomorrow is Easter.  I use to love Easter.  It came at the beginning of spring and brought hope and life.  I always was amazed at the power of God and his work all in one weekend.

Today I don't feel as happy and joyous over the hope and life.  Today I wonder why this work which was suppose to be finished so long ago seems to be dragging on.  Today the grave seems victorious and the sting of death seems painful.

 I wonder if the day will come when like the women visiting the tomb my sorrow will turn to joy and everything that is wrong in this world will suddenly be made right.  I eagerly await the day Christ will return and we will all go to the new heaven and new earth.  We will all have new bodies and finally the sting of death will be no more.  I pray that day comes soon.
