EASTER 2017

Jelly beans, bunnies, Easter egg hunts, dapper clothes,
'Tis children's idea of Easter. Everybody knows.
As tiny-tots age thoughts expand, mature, and change,
Learning broadens mindsets and viewpoints re-arrange.
Thy Resurrection Power of Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior,
Puts Easter in a spiritual vein, prodding more solemn behavior.
Picturing Jesus nailed to a Cross, suffering till He dies,
Securing forgiveness 'n eternal life: In three days He's alive.
Then hearing "Son of God's" burial, sanctifies human graves,
Christ paid sin's debt, forever: believers' souls He's saved.
Lilies adorn churches 'round the globe: Sun in spring is bright,
Sunrise Service. Christians' singing, celebrating with delight.
Happy Easter! Let spirits soar! Believe! Enjoy!
Eternity is freely given to every girl and boy!

"It's like this: when I was a child I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child does. But thoughts grew far beyond those of my childhood and now I have put away the childish things."
