Easter is a time to reflect on the resurrection of Christ and on his death. The torture and pain he bore for us so that we may be given a second chance and a way to live forever with God. He loved us too greatly for him to lose us, he wanted us, he wanted to be with us and walk with us like he did with Adam and Eve, but with our sinful nature, he could not do so for sin cannot be with God. That is the reason why Jesus died on the cross for us, to free us from our burden of sin and so that we, although we are sinful, could be with God. That is why we celebrate Easter, to remember the freedom God gave us by sending his son to die for us. After three days, he rose again, reminding us that he was not defeated and that he can overcome death through death.
