Why Easter 4

 The resurrection continues to change us day after day. The suffering and pain Jesus endured continues to change us as we reflect on the burden of sin He experienced. The resurrection continues to bring renewal, redemption, and restoration to our past, present and future issues. The process of becoming who He wants us to be brings the strength we need each day. He has risen!!

At least in the world we know, it takes trials to make something beautiful and useful out of the raw materials of life. The student’s struggle with truth develops his intelligence; the athlete’s struggle with his records and his opponents helps to develop his muscles and coordination; the musician’s struggle with more difficult pieces develops his playing skill; and the soul’s struggle with the trials of life helps to build character.” - Warren W. Wiersbe, Why Us?: When Bad Things Happen to God's People
