I have always wondered how did anyone come up with the association Easter = Eggs = Bunny. The story of how Christmas had a mascot named Santa Claus is quite well-known but does anyone have any idea how did Easter get its name and eggs and bunny? I don't, however let me take this time to remind others that Easter should be celebrated everyday because our Lord is a risen Lord. I do not mean that we should eat chocolate eggs everyday (horrors! imagine the magnitude of obesity!), instead, we ought to live each day for Christ in return for what He had done for each and every one of us on the cross. Galatians 6:9 - Let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
The reason I finally started blogging was after I read an article in Our Daily Bread (March 19)and I wanted to share with people. It goes like this...

I know some people think its dumb to paste lyrics on the blog but I'm doing so anyway cuz the lyrics have really touched me. If u haven't already realised it, its the lyrics to the song that u r hearing now. Find it familiar? Well its from the soundtrack of At The Dolphin Bay and was sung by Angela Zhang Shao Han. The song was written by Corrinne May, a Singaporean.
I'm not sure if the song has Christian connotations to it but I'll just assume it does and if u read the words carefully u will understand that without God, our life has no meaning or purpose. To people out there, if u r feeling lost and empty, perhaps u r lacking God. For Christians, should u feel that way, perhaps its time to seek God again, remember that God will never forsake us. When we think He is far away, it is because we ourselves have forsaken Him.
(Romans 8:39 - Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ.)
Even when the going gets tough and life is filled with storms, never forget that God is with you. Do not assume the path God has chosen for you is a smooth sailing one, as only through trials and temptations can He mould you into the person He wants you to be.
(1 Peter 5:10 - God will restore you and make you, strong, firm and steadfast after you have suffered.)
