Today, after church, Kurt and I decided to take an Easter nature walk. We found things that reminded us why we celebrate Easter.1 - A branch - The week before His crucifixion, as Christ entered the city, the people waved branches from palm trees. (We don't have palm trees here in Manassas ;-)
2. A piece of wood - for it was out of wood that His cross was made.
3. Something prickly - His crown was made of thorns.
4. Something no longer alive - for truly, the Savior did die.
5. Three things that are dark in color - light could not be found for three days following His death.
6. A stone - it was a huge stone at the opening of the grave that the angel removed.
7. Something living - to remind us that Jesus Christ died and was resurrected and He surely lives today!
