Easter is when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Easter follows Palm Sunday, which is on the 31st of March. Palm Sunday is the day that marks Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem on a donkey. Followers worshipped Jesus by laying down robes and waving palms. The Scripture of Mark recounted the day.
11:8-10, “Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted, “Hosanna! Blessed is the kingdom of our father, David. Hosanna in the highest.”
Jesus’ love, care and humility is a great influence on Christians to live as Jesus did. It also prepares us
for the final act of total self-giving which occurs on Good Friday, Jesus’ death for us. Easter is a large
celebration in the Christian Church. Therefore, as our country is nominally of Christian background, Easter is a commonly observed holiday. Many people may celebrate Easter by just thanking God for what he has done and singing songs that reflect and relate to his resurrection.
Up from the grave He arose with a mighty triumph o’er His foes.
He arose with great power and domain
And He lives forever with His saints to reign!
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose!
