My favorite part of the story of Jesus Is where he is on the cross And one of the criminals hanging on a cross near him Asks him to remember him when he gets to heaven Basically Jesus saves him from hell This has always been my favorite part Why is it so hard to find this message in Easter? The colored eggs The jelly beans The chocolate rabbit Eating fish on Friday These seem to be more popular traditions Would Jesus be proud of most religions? Would he even be proud of the Roman Catholics? I guess my answer would be that he would be proud of some No matter what faith they believe in But ashamed of most Do they really keep the 10 commandments? Are they nice to others? Are they forgiving, especially of themselves? Of course Jesus already knows the answer

About this poem:
Just some thoughts on Easter. I was reading my bible and the version I read didn't have the conversation between Jesus and the condemned prisoner.
MCRad....Yes, the true meaning of Easter is there for all of us....not the jelly beans, not the Easter Bunny.....the REAL REASON....thanks for sharing and blessings as you celebrate the day!:
