1st. Cor. 13:11: "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things...."

When I was a child, Easter was all about egg hunts... Easter bunnies... little chickens and little ducks... But when I became a man, and I put away childish things..

Now please explain to me again what Easter means to you.. And if your answer has only changed to include new clothes.. You still don’t get it..

Has anyone ever explained to you about the empty grave and the promise of God... the devils crowd ... set a watch at the tomb of Jesus to make sure his body stayed... inside... (Matthew 27:65-66) But then God set a watch at the tomb as well to watch the devils watchers... (John 20:12 ... and Matthew 28:2-6....)

And the power of God prevailed.. Put your trust in Almighty God because his power is far above any power that the devil and his crowd can summons... And Jesus Arose....

For as Jesus has gone, one day I will follow and my grave will also be empty.. Praise God what a thought..

Laura and I have our gravestone in place in case we go before the rapture... But we didn’t buy anything fancy or expensive... Why leave a marker behind where our body used to be...

And you wonder why I love Easter...

The closer I get to my own grave the better I love Easter... praise God what a day...

1 Corinthians 15:55: "O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?" .. And preachers.. nothing I preach comes with strings attached.. if God will give it to you.. preach away my brother..

But please don’t use it before Easter Sunday Morning..

And So Here I Stand
