Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week132: All about Easter celebrations

Happy Easter celebration to you all my friends! It's a joyful season and I'm glad to be among the celebrants of the year's easter celebration...

What does Easter mean to you, why do you celebrate it.

Easter means the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is a season of death and and resurrection, a season of inward search, a season of love, joy, empathy and peace. Looking at the death process of our Lord, whom we celebrate, it was a death of honour and glory, a death of obedience, a death that touched humanity.

He didn't just offer himself to die for man but for our liberation and freedom from bondage. Easter is deeper than what we think. After 3 days, he rose from the dead and ascended into heaven, that is our freedom, our release from the bondage of sin, our cleanliness into the lime-light of righteousness.

I celebrate easter because no one would sacrifice themselves for me, not even my father. I have a deep understanding about easter what it all entails and the outcomes too. Easter is a period to purge oneself by reflecting, standing on the right track, doing good to others and lots more. One things should be noted; all these things do not end with easter, it should be a new lifestyle of every Christian.

Christ died that we should have a better life, we should also extend that life to others who do not have them. That way, we help christ in his work.

How did you celebrate your Easter this year.

Easter this year, I thank God almighty for health. I was struck with sickness at easter eve and this destabilizes my activities for the easter sunday. I couldn't go to church, talk to anyone or feed well.

I was so down that I streamed online service but still couldn't get up to go buy drugs because all my bones were weak. The neighbours I tried to reach out to were so busy that I had to manage myself out in search of drugs so I can feel ok.

So I celebrated my easter on drugs all alone.

What is/was your favorite thing about Easter.

My favorite thing about easter is the fact that I have to be fed with enlightening words that would boost my spirit man into another level of life.

You know, during easter season, my church have this programmed that helps people stay focused, connected, encouraged and meditate. You would be enlightened on what easter celebration is all about. You would follow through the process till the end, which will put you in your right place with the Lord.

I love been uplifted in the spirit during easter, that's my favorite thing!
