Easter Morning

When I was a kid.. I couldn't wait for Easter morning for so many reasons..

Of course.. there was going to be an Easter basket filled with jelly beans and a cute stuffed animal. There was always an Easter egg hunt... and.. I always got a brand new dress to wear to Easter mass. My mom loved Easter, so she really did it up right.

I was always fascinated with the Resurrection story. One year.. not too many years ago.. I went to a church service where the story of Jesus' Crucifixion and Resurrection was depicted and it was amazing. I really felt the spirit of Jesus in that moment and it was so humbling.

He lived his life in a way that we all should. Loving the unlovable... Reaching out to the people who live on the outside of society... and accepting everyone and loving them...

The judgemental way in which some people act in His name is shameful.

Let's all remember that He loved us all.. for better or worse...
