today was easter sunday. i went to one of those e-cards webpage to look for an easter card, but all i found was bunch of cards with those cute bunnies and eggs full of pastel color variations. at first, i thought these cards just look kinda goofy but cute. however, as i browsed thru these e-card webpages, i found 2 out of about 35 cards that had any reference to Jesus and His resurrection. all the other cards were about finding eggs and cuddling these stupid bunnies.
sometimes i find it amazing that we are so easily tricked into thinking that what they say is right. all of my memories of easter always had some type of bunny and egg hunting involved.

today's sermon was really good. pastor ryan talked about how his resurrection effects who we are and how we shall live today, not the future. because of Jesus Christ's resurrection, i can live today looking forward to the eternity. that's what paul did. that's what i want to do. i know that living like this may look foolish to the world, but i believe that Jesus Christ did die on the cross for my sin and resurrected to give me eternal life. therefore, i can live this life to His glory and Him alone. cuz He's bought this life. it's not really mine to live it the way i want to. God, help me to live this life for you. i know that my life will go thru the monday through the saturday of life, but help me to know that because of sunday, the day you rose from the dead, i can live for you.

i heard that bunnies eat their own crap and sometimes their own babies... how sick! who picked bunnies to represent easter anyways? these people really have no idea what easter sunday means... how sad.
