Midweek: The Celebration Continues!

I was privileged this past Sunday to be present when a young man from our fellowship shared a beautiful meditation he composed. I hope it touches you as it touched many of us on Resurrection Sunday:

Here is a poem to celebrate the extraordinary event of Jesus' resurrection:

In the dawn of a new day, hope emerged,

From the darkness of the tomb, life surged.

With triumphant power, death was defeated,

As Jesus, our Savior, rose, fully completed.

Behold, the stone rolled away with grace,

Revealing an empty tomb, an empty space.

The chains of sin and sorrow shattered,

By the Son of God, whose love never faltered.

From death's grip, Jesus emerged in glory,

Writing a new chapter in salvation's story.

The grave could not hold Him, nor its might,

For He is the Resurrection, the true Light.

Oh, the joy that fills our hearts on this day,

As we celebrate the One who paved the way.

His sacrifice, a gift of love so profound,

In His resurrection, eternal hope we found.

Through Him, we find redemption's embrace,

A promise of eternal life and God's grace.

Let every voice rise in joyful refrain,

Proclaiming Jesus' resurrection, forever reign!

So, let us gather on this special morn,

With hearts uplifted and spirits reborn.

For Jesus conquered death, sin, and strife,

And offers us everlasting, abundant life.

Rejoice, oh souls, in this wondrous truth,

The resurrection of Jesus, our living proof,

That in Him, we find forgiveness and peace,

And in His presence, our souls find release.

On this Resurrection Sunday, let us adore,

The One who gives us life forevermore.

With grateful hearts, we join the glorious hymn,

Proclaiming Jesus Christ, our risen King, with vim!

May this poem inspire you to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ with joy and gratitude. May His victory over death fill your heart with hope and assurance of His everlasting love. Happy Resurrection Sunday!

Praise Jesus whose resurrection is cause for celebration each and every day!
