What does it mean to grab hope this Easter?

Billions of people around the globe celebrate Easter. Stores are full of Easter eggs and bunnies, and in Australia we get four full days of holiday time. But for the Christian community, there’s a much deeper story of suffering and celebration that brings meaning to Easter. When we pay attention to the life of Jesus, we hear of a loving God who saw the suffering of the world and gave us the most precious gift of all.

‘For God so love the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.’ John 3:16.

We know we can’t escape suffering, and often we feel there’s got to be a way out – a way to stop the suffering, pain, rejection, injustice. When all efforts on our part to change the world seem impossible, we can hold on to one sure thing – hope!

Hope in God has immense power to transform our world. If God is a God of love, who sent his Son to suffer this world with us, to take on all the pain and grief of this world and nail it to his cross of suffering, then surely he is a God who will always be with us.

Grab hope today and find out the blessings God has to offer to all who believe in him.
