New Beginnings
This Easter weekend, I am reminded that we have been given grace in the form of new beginnings. Whether you’re religious or not, it is important to know that there’s hope with the offerings of new beginnings.
Recently, I have had multiple experiences which have reminded me of the beauty of new beginnings or fresh starts if you will. There has been the rekindling of old friendships associated with life in an earlier time, forgiveness of those who have caused pain and the hope of a fresh start.
For me this Easter, I think about the abiding love that has been given to us — the sacrifice made for all so we could experience this incredible gift of life and ultimately as non perfect people who believe, have eternal life.
As a man, Jesus moved among the people. People who were rich, poor, sick, needy — all walks of life he experienced. He made no judgement calls, he loved, he taught, he listened, he accepted. He truly spent his life on earth building relationships and encouraging new beginnings.
What a beautiful testimony of love and support — acceptance and forgiveness. This Easter weekend, embrace the possibilities of new beginnings. We all have opportunities in our lives to open the door and begin again. It just requires us to simply trust and believe. Happy Easter!
