Lenten devotions: April 19, 2014 (Holy Saturday)

April 19, 2014                         Romans 6:3-11
Resurrection of Our Lord        John 20:1-18
Vigil of Easter            

Reflecting on today’s reading, I am reminded of Baptism through which we are transformed. We die to sin and receive new life in Christ, as if we had died and were reborn. We now live in the Spirit and are no longer slaves to sin. Adam’s sin brought death to mankind. Through His death on the cross, Jesus brought forgiveness, reconciliation with God, and the promise of eternal life. How great is God’s love for us!  

Let our prayer be John 3:16
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in Him may not perish but may have eternal life.”
