AN EASTER PEOPLE

The latest National Church Life Survey reveals that three in 10 Australians do not believe in the resurrection of Jesus. The Australian Community Survey found that 44 per cent of Australians believed in the resurrection in some way but more than a quarter did not know what they believed about it. (Cathnews) (Mindboggling isn’t it? The rock on which the early Church was built and what we hold on to and believe is: That Jesus died for our sins and three days later rose again so we might have eternal life in him. We believe that because of the Resurrection, Jesus is still with us now!) ..... Life is precious, but it can also be remarkably difficult at times. Faith is what helps to get us through, illuminating the pathway in times of darkness, helping to give us strength in times of weakness. Without faith, we are nothing. (wanderlustworker.com) Let’s give thanks this Easter for our gift of faith. “We are an Easter people and Hallelujah is our song!”
