It cost us all

I wanted to take a moment to reflect on Easter before the day is done.  A thought that has consistently been on my mind is that
NONE OF US
MAKE IT THROUGH LIFE
UNSCATHED.
I guess what I want to get at is the idea that no ones story will come without conflict
good choices
poor choices
epic failures and
epic successes.
At the end of the day we each are uniquely human in our failures weather it is our addictions, moral failures, or inability to forgive.  NONE OF US MAKE IT THROUGH LIFE UNSCATHED.

In a very clear way......
this fact that we will not make it through life without the implications of our choices,

which are present and heavy on our hearts                                                                        

is the reason why EASTER is such a big deal.  

Jesus came.  Jesus lived.  Jesus made a conscious decision to live a fully human and fully God like existence in which no one comes out unscathed.  Easter means that Jesus assumed the implications of all of our choices.  It cost Jesus the implications of our choices. No one comes out unscathed, not even Jesus.

He carried all implications of our choices to the grave and back for loves sake.

According to Stanford Medical, It is really the one and ONLY reason women in this country get to live 10 years longer and weigh an average of 42 lbs lighter than us.

(And realistically, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret exercise and really, EVERYTHING to do with "how" they are eating.)

P.S, What I said is "HOW", not "what"...
