Passover/Resurrection Sunday is the reminder of a new beginning that marks the victory over the works of the enemy.
(3)Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
(4)and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fadekept in heaven for you,
(5)who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.
(6)In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.
(7)These have come so that your faithof greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by firemay be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.
(8)Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
(9)for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
1 Peter 1:3-9

I just want to say that it is truly a Godsend to hear a man of faith on DS. If I hadn\'t had Him I would have died. Physically, emotionally and spiritually, thank you for being an example of a \"real\" man.
