Easter has come and gone again, but thanks be to God the power of Christ's resurrection stays with us always. His resurrection and victory over death is the ultimate comeback story. In resurrection, God shows us that there is nothing more powerful than God--not even death. Through Christ, resurrection is also available to us.
Rather than looking in the media at celebrity comebacks for inspiration, we can draw strength from the truth of Easter in any and every circumstance.
Please remember that this power is greater than any mistake you can make or any problem that you encounter. Although you have heard time and again that Jesus loves you, keep in mind that Jesus defeated death...for you. You can rely on Christ and find hope in His resurrection when relationships fail, when you suffer the consequences of poor decisions or when life seems overwhelming. Faith in Christ will not eliminate suffering but it will give us strength, comfort and hope during times of trial. It enables us to come back from even the most distressing situations.
