Easter Story Poem by Melissa Patty

Its this time of Easter coming to the story
Where God made Jesus in all its glory
A sadness time of shedding the pain
To this as its said again
As Jesus had the Passover meal it passed through
It give the meal a special symbol for me and you
Jesus knew he was going to die
So he told what the meal was going to represent for you and I
The bread was to represent his body that was going to die and to remember him in a light
The disciples couldn't believe what was happening or in sight
The wine was to represent his blood, the blood that was going to be shed on the cross
Such a wonderful man that was put to death terrible loss
As Judas wasn't there he betrayed Jesus with a kiss
He was one of the disciples but he took a wrong miss
Jesus was elected to be crucified on the cross that's where he died
But he was perfect in every way he never hurt any one or lied
They hit him with robes mocked him and put thorns into a crown
Made him like he done something wrong when he wasn't that way around
Nails where put in his feet and hands
Its horrible to think about it as everybody understands
Put on the cross there he died, Jesus died because to save
He suffered pain but he forgive
In a tomb lay his body 3 days after, stone was rolled away
Where did it go?
This was something we all know
Mary MacLean looked in the tomb no body to be seen or heard
Only to his voice said one word
Mary ran and she told the wonderful thing
That this happened to her has she made everyone know and sing
But Thomas was a doubter, he didn't believe that jesus rose from the dead
Until Jesus visited him and then he knew it wasn't something that was just said
So Jesus rose again but he disappeared in a flash to heaven with his Father
As this message we shall all gather
Remember the wonderful things Jesus performed and he died for us to save are sins and punishment
Only we can do that if we want to be sent
To a place where a golden mansion of peace and a life of eternal life
Not suffering or badness or strife
So remember the Easter story and think about The life you want to lead The Lords is my Shepherd I want to go that way
Asking The Lord into your heart is an opening to your prayers each day.
