The most important day is coming up. Yes, it is Easter.. Are you planning to go for hunting egg? Or bring your kiddies meet the Easter bunny? Hehe.. Hmm.. I am sorry to say, but Easter is nothing about egg and bunny. Easter is waaaayyyyyy deeper than that. Seriously.. Easter is all about God's salvation on the cross. He gave Himself for us, the sinners.. Sadly, people today are forgetting the true meaning of Easter. When the word Easter heard, the first thing comes in their mind are about Easter bunny and hunting eggs. No..No.. No.. Pleased don't! >_< Please read again on John 3:16..
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
Easter is all about His love.. Jesus love.. The true love.. Eternal love.. It is nothing about national holiday, Easter bunny, eggs, and sales in many stores. Personally, Easter is when I celebrate my valentine day with Him. Who is on the Earth will sacrifice for me like Jesus did? Who will love me unconditionally like Jesus does? No one! No one can be compared to Him.. Yes, I do surrounded with people who love me so muchh.. My family, friends, community, and so on.. But, they are still can't be compared to Jesus. :)
You say that you love rain, but you open your umbrella when it rains.
You say that you love the sun, but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines.
You say that you love the wind, but you close your windows when wind blows.
This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too. -Bob Marley
What kind of love we find? His love is the only perfect love. He creates us wonderfully (Psalm 139:14), He creates us according to His own image (Genesis 1:27), and He loves us unconditionally.. Are you teary when your loved one gives you surprise? Are you willing to do whatever to make your loved one happy? Let's see what Jesus did for us.. and how long He has been waiting for us?

When you are touched with a poem that your spouse/children/boyfriend/girlfriend gives to you, how can you are not touched with His words? His word is not a poem, it is a promise.. He promises us that He will never leave nor forsaken us. He knew everything about us, and He cares of us. He is not only know our problems, but He is also understand them. When we are crying, He is crying besides us.. Do you feel Him? Do you feel His presence? His comfort? Please stop looking for a love that this world offer to you. If we have Jesus, we are content! No one can make us content.. No one can love us like He does.. No one. When we love someone, we will do whatever to make him/her happy. So, now let's stop looking for Easter bunny n eggs during Easter.. And go back to our True Love who has been waiting for us for a looonnggg time ago.. :p Happy Easter everyone! May God bless you all :)
