It’s over. It’s done. Life is back to normal. Except for one little fact – it’s not. That’s because it’s really just beginning. What God has done in Easter is not just an act tethered in history or a day of the year denoted on a calendar. It’s reality. In fact, it’s the most real reality of all. It defines who you are. It points you towards what is most important in life. It shapes how you live. And it gives you absolute hope that nothing that happens can ultimately defeat you. So, today, look at everything you see, hear, feel, experience and hope for through the reality of Easter. It will change you. It will change how you feel. It will change how you live. And it will change your life.

YouthWorker Movement Questions to Consider:
What does Easter mean in your life today? In your ministry today?
How does the reality of Easter shape your life? Your family’s life? You staff relationships?
Who are you? How do you know your identity?
How does easter change your thinking? How does Easter change your feelings?
[You may find it helpful to spend a day on each question and write down your responses. Write whatever comes to mind without judgement. Then take some time to carefully pray through what you have written. And take time to listen because God is talking to you.]
