Here's an Easter votive candle
A Light for your way ~

Have a Happy Easter day!

Yellow is for daffodils
That will flower in Spring
Yellow is for our hope so bright
That Easter day will bring ~
When you light this candle
Remember Christ is The Way,
He died for us and rose again
On that wonderful Easter day!

Easter Lilies are a remembrance
Of everything Pure and White
As a candle that burns brightly ~
The Light of our Risen Christ!

Easter
Colors of Easter (use colored beads for a bracelet)
Green - is a springtime sign of rebirth,
As brand-new growth brings your to the earth.
Blue - are the eggs in the robin's nest,
Nurtured beneath her feathered breast.
Lavender - are the dainty woodland flowers
That bloom when blessed by springtime showers.
Pink - was the dawn on the Firth Easter Day,
When the tomb was empty; the stone rolled away.
Gold - was the dazzling light that awed
All who saw Him arisen - the Son of God.
Crystal clear - is the meaning of this story;
Those who believe will live with Him in glory!
Easter basket
Little Lord Jesus, first bed was of hay,
Some Easter grass we're using today.
A bag of coins - betrayal of Christ,
Judas betrayed; paid for that tryst.
Chocolate rooster shows Peter debased;
3 times denial, he looked in Christ's face.
Basket is woven together with thorn
To symbolize the crown Jesus had worn.
A hollow egg shell for the tomb that is bare,
Yes! Jesus arose - He Lives! But NOT there!
Marshmallow bunnies, a soft yellow chick,
New life & a new birth - He wants us to pick.
Some foil-covered eggs like streets, shiny gold
Streets like in Heaven where no one grows old.
Our Jesus lives there, inviting us too,
mansions He's building for me & for you.
The Easter basket, symbolic today
Story of Jesus, to show us the way.
