Sun



                It is difficult to imagine the solar system without the Sun. Going deeper into imagination; a striking question hits at me i.e. what would the earth be without the Sun. indescribable situations would take place on the earth and its normal daily routine would be thrown out of balance. When I was in school, we used to have an essay topic in the exams namely ‘If the Sun didn’t rise then………………….’

                Many times I wrote that if the Sun didn’t rise, then there would be no need to get up on time, go to school, complete assignments, and be punctual and so on. As I reflected on this topic a ray of light passed through my mind and the SUN was replaced by SON. ‘If the Son didn’t rist up from the dead then…….’ If this statement was to be true, then we would have no reason to exist.


                All Christians uphold the slogan, ‘We are an Easter people and Alleleluia is our song!’Christianity believes in the truth that Jesus has risen from the dead and that He is alive. Easter can be defined as the foundation stone on which Christianity is built.

                If the Lord had not risen from the dead, then we would have never known anything about Him. He would have been called a ‘False Prophet’. However since He rose from the dead, we have hope and place our trust in Him.
