-Easter bunny, chocolate eggs, bright colored outfits, trips to church and grandma's house. Ham for dinner, baskets with goodies and the promise of spring, sunshine and renewed hope for the future-
The resurrection of Christ, his ascension to heaven,the promise of eternal life;this belief offers that a good life and good deeds afford us heavenly reward and the hope for a better world.
The Cross and Easter Bunny symbols of celebration, of hope. Each has its own notion, its own interpretation. Both however suggest they are more than moments of a day or calendar date for remembering.
The image of Easter Bunny is a pleasant and enduring thought for all ages. The spirit of Christ, his life and death are inspiration and hope for now and eternity.
The belief in something greater than ourselves affords us an ongoing chance to celebrate each day,each other, with the smile and warm feelings that the "Easter Bunny" offers on this day. With Christ in our hearts it will indeed be a day of joy.
