Before Service Prayer: Living Lord and risen Savior, accept my alleluias and increase my joy that comes from knowing that You have risen from the dead. Comfort me with the assurance that my sins are forgiven and eternal life in heaven is sure. Let the joy of the Easter message lead me to go and tell the good news of Your resurrection to the people who don't know the true meaning of Easter. Let the light of my faith in You shine brightly as I face each day in the future and the day of my death on earth. I ask this in Your name, who rose for me. Amen.

Today's Theme: BECAUSE HE LIVES -- WE HAVE A MEANINGFUL MISSION, If Jesus remained dead, all He would provide is an example of a beautiful life. Therefore, if Jesus remained dead, the mission of His followers would simply be to share advice. "Here is how Jesus would want us to love one another". Or "Jesus would want us to think about money like this." Or "This is how Jesus would pray." But because He lives, His followers now have a meaningful mission. It is not to share advice, but to testify to what we have seen and know to be true. Christ has risen! Thus, Jesus is not a standard, but our Savior. Jesus is not primarily an example for this life, but the doorway into eternal life. His resurrection to glory will be the resurrection of all who put their faith in Him. Sharing that good news - that's our mission.
