An EASTER Story...
One day the teacher tells her first grade students
that she will give an extra gold star to the first one who can
correctly tell the class the true meaning of Easter.
Little Suzy raises her hand and says, "Easter is when you
cook a great big turkey and invite all your family over and everyone
gives thanks and..." At this point the teacher interrupted
and said, "I'm sorry, Suzy, that's 'Thanksgiving'. Now who
can explain 'Easter'? "
That's when little Tommy raised his hand and volunteered, "I
know, I know! Easter is all about Jesus! And that's when he was
born and the three wise men came and...", whereupon the teacher
again interrupted and said, No, Tommy, that's not correct either...
that's 'Christmas'! Does anybody else know what 'Easter"
is all about?"
Finally, little Danny raised his hand and said "I know the
answer! It's about Jesus all right, but not about when he was
born...it's about when he died for our sins and how he was crucified
on the cross!" The teacher said, "That's right, Danny!",
but Danny said, "But wait, there's more! After they crucified
him, they took him down from the cross and put him in a cave and
rolled a huge stone in front of the opening. Then three days later
the stone was removed and Jesus came walking out, and then he
looked down and saw his shadow...and we had six more weeks of
winter!"
