Message of Hope for Easter Celebration!
Easter is a time where our hearts are filled with everlasting gratitude for Christ. However, Easter is also a reminder of all the pain that Jesus experienced in order to save sinners. The pictures of the empty cross, tomb, and clothes, serve as a reminder that God can take tragedy and turn it into triumph.As you cleanse yourself for the period,all your mountains will be turn into triumph.You are now mark with His Blood.
Jesus died on the cross to return one day to call only those who know Him. Without Jesus in our lives, we would live a life void of purpose and meaning. Our lives would be filled with material possessions, instead of knowing that our true home is in Heaven. People place false hope in their material possessions believing they will bring them stability and fulfillment. As Christians, we know that our true identities can only be found in Christ. This is a period of soberness and meditation for what He has done for me and you.God bless you.

You Can Grow Through Difficulty!
The Scripture says,“These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold..”(1 Peter 1:7, NLT)
One thing we have to realize is that God is not going to deliver us from every difficulty. He is not going to keep us from every challenge. If He did, we would never grow. The Scripture says, “Our faith is tried in the fire of affliction.” When you’re in a tough time, that’s an opportunity for your faith to shine.
If you want God to take you to the new level,you got to pass the tests.you cannot be a weak. You’ve got to be a warrior. Dig your heels in and say like Paul, “I can handle it. I’m ready for it. I’m equal to it. I know God is still on the throne. He is fighting my battles, and on the other side of this difficulty is a new level of my destiny.” God bless you.
