Resurrection Day Thoughts

Many people, on this Easter Sunday, are going to church, quoting scriptures and song lyrics about the Savior who was pierced for our sins and rose from the grave on the third day, conquering sin and death. I love those scriptures and I enjoy singing all those songs but I do not want to merely repeat what has already been said.  Instead,  I want to ask a question to those who are believers in Christ, those who are celebrating Christ's resurrection today. When you go back to your regular routine tomorrow, to work or school or whatever you do, will the remembrance of Christ's death and resurrection impact where you go, what you do or how you do it?  Will you be the same tomorrow as you were yesterday? Did your worship today change you in any way? Did you truly repent and worship today, or was it just your usual holiday routine? When Christ left Heaven, He knew He was coming to die as the perfect sacrifice lamb to forgive us of our sinfulness. He has called everyone who calls himself a Christian to be holy, "set apart", for His glory. Tomorrow, will the people around you know that you are different somehow? Will they see the joy in your heart because of your relationship with Christ? Will you let your light shine?
