THE FREEING OF JESUS=THE FREEING OF US

THE FREEING OF JESUS= THE FREEING OF US Easter Sunday means That Jesus is unbound Jesus is RELEASED And he is set FREE He is no longer A prisoner for our sins He is loose "On the first day Of the week Mary of Magdala came to the tomb Early in the morning While it was still dark And saw the stone REMOVED from the tomb" John 20:1 YES!-Easter does mean He is set free He is loose He is FULLY ALIVE He is no longer Bound for our sins And he is free To show us the way To go home For us-TO BE FREE TOO "Teach me your WAY-Lord That I may rely On your faithfulness Give me an undivided heart That I may Fear your name I will praise you Lord my God With ALL my heart ........" Psalm 86:11-12 "The Lord is righteous In all his ways And faithful In ALL he does" Psalm 145:17 The fact That Jesus is now FREE Means he can show up Anywhere and anytime In our lives Just as he did with apostles and disciples He can look like the gardener As he did to Mary Magdalene He can be the stranger With two friends On the road To Emmaus He CAN be a visitor With our family and friends At Easter dinner He is FREE He is unbound He can show up anywhere At anytime "He upholds The CAUSE of the oppressed And gives food to the hungry The Lord SETS prisoners free" Psalm 146:7 He sets us ALL free "So if the SON SETS you free You will be FREE indeed" John 8:36 EASTER SUNDAY=the RESURRECTION Means the freeing Of Jesus It also means The freeing of us to sin KEEP YOUR EYES open this week You might see Jesus In the newspaper man- The postal deliverer- Maybe a cashier- At the grocery store- Or the car mechanic At the doctor's office- Or in your own family and friends JESUS IS LOOSE- JESUS IS FREE Keep your eyes open You might even see him STARING back at you in the mirror I see Jesus In ALL of you HAPPY EASTER!-HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY!
