Five years ago, I had the insane opportunity to go to the Holy Land and do a pilgrimage. And in the Holy Land, I went to the Holy Sepulchre. In the Holy Sepulchre, there is the tomb where they laid the body of Jesus, and I went inside. Guys, you will not believe what I saw. I saw nothing. There was nothing. There was no one because Jesus Christ had risen from the dead.
We celebrate Easter today, which is the reality of the Resurrection. Jesus Christ has been victorious over death, sin, and all our hearts’ fears. You never have to be afraid again because Jesus has won, He is living, and He is true and resurrected. I am praying for all of you. I hope you have a blessed Easter. I love you so much. And please say yes to the Risen Lord. This is Spirit Juice. Blessed, happy Easter. God bless you.

The beauty of these award shows is that the first thing that happens when someone receives an award, they actually show gratitude.

What Makes Us Fully Alive
If it has been less than a week since you’ve binge-watched movies or TV shows, raise your hand. Now raise your hand if, afterward, you felt absolutely alive. When we binge-watch TV and movies, we feel less alive. In the Gospel today, Jesus says, “Come to me all who labor and are burdened, “and I will give you rest.” We’re called to go to the Lord…

Forced Love Is Not Love
So wouldn’t it be easier if Juliet forced Romeo to love him? Then, none of that heartbreak would’ve happened. So what if Jim from “The Office” forced Pam to love him in the first season? Then, none of that drama or heartbreak would’ve happened. The answer is no. Because forced love is not love. In the Gospel for this Sunday, Jesus is tempted by Satan to throw himself down, to reveal his glory, to reveal his divinity to the…
