easter sunday.

i wasn't going to blog today but decided i would. Our preacher today (head pastor of Messiah in Yorba Linda), was not our regular pastor. the associate pastor usually preaches which i think is kind of cool but i digress. HE made a statement in his sermon; (my paraphrase) "we, humanity, are third-day people. Our lives, our hopes, our future only makes since in light of Gods action in the resurrection."

agreed. And yet it is humbling to recognize.

It seems that this is a message I've been hearing a lot lately. I know it makes since that I would given that it's Easter but I can't think of a more perfect time in my life to really take hold of it. It gives us purpose, through Jesus Christ we have worth.

exactly. for me it is a recalling to a center. i guess an over arching question for me post-easter is how to live as third day people. How will this change me. I must admit it is perfect timing for me as well as often i feel no connection to my third day reality, or in Christ's connection to my daily action.
