"The joyful news that He is risen does not change the contemporary world. Still before us lies the work, disipline and sacrifice. The fact of Easter gives us the spiritual power to do the work, accept the disipline and make the sacrifice."~Henry Knox Sherrill
Easter is a beautiful and truly extordinary thing for me. It is beyond my comprehension that God so loved the world, that He sacrificed His own son on the cross so that my sins would be forgiven. But it is not a free pass...the Bible reminds me that "To whom much is given, much is expected." What is expected of me? I found this quote above and it resonated with me so much. Our sins are forgiven AND we still still need to keep on. On Saturday, a friend reminded me, it's about progress, not perfection. Keep moving forward, keepi trying, keep the FAITH.
