Easter is about Remembering Jesus Sacrifice

This Easter, My Heart Cries Thank You! This Easter hits differently.

At 32 years old, I find myself reflecting deeply on the importance of Jesus’ sacrifice. I’ve celebrated Easter my whole life, but not celebrating for the right reason. But this year… it feels personal. I don’t just know about the cross—I feel the weight of what He carried, what He conquered, and what He gave so I could be free.

Jesus’ death and resurrection aren’t just stories I believe—they are the very foundation of who I am becoming. Every miracle He performed, every soul He touched, every word He spoke—I believe in it all. And because I do, I have no choice but to try live a life that screams: Jesus is my Lord and Savior.

I don’t want to live a life that whispers Jesus. I want a life that shines for Him. That radiates obedience. That drips in grace. That shouts, “She belongs to the King!” When people see me, I want them to see and feel Jesus!

Girl, I’m not perfect—far from it. Trust me! But I serve the One who is. And in my imperfection, He continues to meet me with mercy. This Easter, I feel overwhelmed with gratitude. Jesus gave His life, knowing WE WILL stumble, and He still chose the cross. He still chose me. Girl, he still chose you. What man or woman you know would die for you? Not only die for you, but die for you knowing you STILL will mess up. Girl no one can love like that, but Jesus!

One of the biggest faith moves I’ve ever made was moving to Dallas. No plan. No blueprint. Just a whole lot of obedience and a heart that said, “Yes, Lord.” And you know what? God has sustained my family in every single way. He’s provided, protected, directed, and comforted. He is my rock. My foundation. My everything. I’m forever grateful and indebted to him. My life will never be the same, this changed my world.

Scriptures to meditate over this Easter:

• But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53:5
• He is not here; He has risen, just as He said. Matthew 28:6
• Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

To the one feeling lost: there is hope in Jesus.

To the one feeling unworthy: there is grace in Jesus.

To the one needing direction: there is guidance in Jesus.

This Easter, I pray we don’t just celebrate the resurrection—we live it.
