Hi Folks,
I hope you had a great Resurrection Weekend!! A friend of mine emailed me on Saturday and wished me "Happy Risen Savior Day!" Loved that!!! It embodies everything and hits the nail squarely on the head!!
Just as an FYI, if you did not know, .."in English-speaking countries, and in Germany, Easter takes its name from a pagan goddess from Anglo-Saxon England who was described in a book by the eighth-century English monk Bede. 'Eostre was a goddess of spring or renewal and that's why her feast is attached to the vernal equinox,' Professor Cusack said"-https://www.google.com/search?q=easter+goddess&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS892US892&oq=easter%2C+goo&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0i20i131i263i433j0i131i433j0i20i131i263i433j0i131i433l6.4494j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8.
That is what many Christians like myself refer to this day instead as "Resurrection Day", which embodies the true meaning of this day:)
I have a devots. for you, both of which I hope you take the time to read through the week. I think it give spiritual food for thought, teach you something and will also encourage your heart and faith in the Lord this week.
Have a blessed week!!
