Easter Message from Sung Ho

We welcomed Jesus this past Sunday waving palms and shouting, “Hosanna! Hosanna!” Are you with Jesus through this week? Or are you not going to see him again until Easter morning?

Jesus invites us to the last supper on Thursday. Are you coming? Or are you TOO BUSY to have the LAST supper with JESUS? It’s The LAST SUPPER with Jesus! Join the Disciples at the table of GRACE and LOVE. Jesus would ask you to put your feet in the basin. Maybe you don’t want to show your ugly toe nails. I understand. A couple of my toe nails are ugly. But I will take off my shoes and socks and let Jesus wash my feet. I see “who I am” in my ugly toe nails. If I hide “me” in me, where is the place for grace and love? If I don’t feel comfortable being touched by Jesus, how can I experience Jesus’ love? Make yourself vulnerable, and then you will experience Jesus’ hand touching your “ugly toe nails” of your life with amazing love and grace.

And follow Jesus to Calvary on Friday. When I follow Jesus to the hill and stay with him there, grace and love flow from the cross into my heart. The holy week is very dramatic. The energy in the holy week moves continuously between mountaintops and valleys. It moves swiftly like the water in the ravine. At the cross, I find myself full of Jesus’ love and grace, but it is the moment of darkness.

But that’s not the end. Thanks be to God! Christ is risen! Let us meet the risen Christ on Easter morning. The risen Christ fills our hearts with the spirit of new hope and renews our lives with new strength of eternal life. Let’s praise God for what God has done for us.

Alleluia! Christ is risen!
