A few days after Easter

I wonder what you are doing today. Most of us have gone back to our routine of work or school or whatever. We stopped long enough to enjoy Easter and perhaps celebrate Jesus resurrection.

But what about the disciples? The build-up to Easter was horrible for them but the days following were amazing. If we could couple our enthusiastic build-up with their awesome follow-up I think we might get Easter right.

We look forward to Easter because we know Jesus is alive even though we was arrested, beaten, and crucified. They lived forward from Easter because Jesus was alive and with them again.

Let’s remember to bring the meaning of Easter forward into our routine lives and then life won’t be so routine.
