Happy Easter

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."

So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me."

Matthew 28:1-10

Satan has absolutely no hold on us at all. Want proof? The empty tomb. Christ is risen! Happy easter folks! =)

Faith

God is real and God will always be there for you, only if you seek Him. Always have faith no matter what happens. Even if you are having the most difficult times of your life, just let The Lord take care of the situations. There are times that you might feel that you that your prayers are not getting answered, but have that He will take care of them.

He works in very mysterious ways and lots of times, our prayers don't get answered right away, or the outcome might not be what we had hoped for, but He will work it out, with the best intentions.

Don't lose your faith. This is extremely important and here is the reason why. If you lose faith, you will dissapoint God because you don't trust Him fully because you have some doubt. If you want to plese the Lord, you must have 100% faith and not have an ounce of doubt. God never fails, no matter what the situations are. Keep the faith and stick with it.
