Good Friday

It's Good Friday today, also known as the start to Easter weekend. For lots of people, this just means that they have a few extra days off of school, or maybe an extra day off of work. And of course chocolate.
Lets all just take a moment to remember why we celebrate Easter. It has nothing to do with any bunny, and I'm pretty sure that chocolate didn't have anything to do with it either.
Easter is the celebration of our Saviour Jesus Christ sacrificing for our sins, and being resurrected by Our Father.
I know it's a pretty simple explanation, but we had Mackenzie and Hunter sleepover last night, and after playing outside for hours this morning, I am saving up my energy for a Friday night closing shift while Vanessa and the kids are at Easter service.

Take a moment now, and thank Jesus for his ultimate sacrifice. Without it, none of us would qualify for the bliss of Heaven.
