Be Blessed Verse
This week’s verse is John 11:25-26
It says, “Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die.”
In this verse, Jesus reveals to his friend Martha that He is the resurrection and the life. He is saying that those who believe in Him will live forever, even if they experience physical death. By believing in Him, they are promised eternal life and will never die.
3 days after Jesus died on the cross, he came back, resurrected, and remained on earth for 40 days.
During this time, He appeared to many people and showed them that He had indeed risen from the dead. He taught them about His kingdom and promised them that they too would be able to live with Him in heaven when they believed in Him.
At the end of His time on earth, He ascended into heaven in a cloud of glory, never to be seen again, but He does say that He is coming back for His children, and nobody but His Father God, knows when.
Spring is a time of joy and renewal, so it’s only fitting that the holidays of Easter and Passover are celebrated during this time. Preparing your home for these holidays is an especially worthwhile endeavor as it allows you to mark the arrival of the season with meaningful activities like decorating eggs, (I love to do that with my Granddaughter), setting up indoor and outdoor decorations, or arranging a special dinner table setting.
Furthermore, doing these tasks together with family and friends adds an extra layer of significance to the holiday celebrations.
3 Ways to Prepare Your Home For Easter or Passover
Spring holidays bring joy, renewal, and hope; preparing the home for Easter or Passover. It is a beautiful way to foster this spirit by creating a festive atmosphere. It’s also an opportunity to connect with family and friends through meaningful traditions, making the home feel alive with happiness and love.
My granddaughter and any family children bring awe and wonder to the season. It is so fun to see the eggs hunt with giggles and excitement. And saying, “I see one, you’re hot, you’re cold.” So fun!!!
#1: Take the Time to Design a Tasteful, Curated Tablescape
Have a great time creating a stunning tablescape that reflects the beauty of the season and brings joy to your guests!
With carefully chosen colors, textures, and accents, you can transform any dining room into an unforgettable experience.
From seasonal centerpieces to sophisticated dishes and glassware, take the time to design an elegant and tasteful curated tablescape for this special occasion. Choose items that make you happy and they will be sure to delight your guests too! My special ones come out and are used in different ways each year.
Start with setting a theme for your tablescape - consider traditional religious items to celebrate the holiday, fun, colorful, and seasonal accents to bring a unique touch, and serve ware and napkins that match the aesthetic. If you have formal china, use it! This is a perfect time.
Layer serving pieces and mix in special touches such as personalized place cards or fresh flowers.
Finally, finish off with a showstopping centerpiece that will wow your guests.
#2: Fuse Fresh Decor & Family Heirlooms for a Joyful-Feeling Space
Combining fresh decor and family heirlooms is a great way to create a joyful-feeling space.
Incorporate items that reflect your values, personality, and heritage into your room.
Try using a vibrant rug or furniture to set the tone and bring in family pieces such as beautiful vintage dishes, photo frames, and books to keep the atmosphere homey.
Adding soft touches with traditional patterns will make your guests feel at ease.
With these ideas, you can create a unique space that truly reflects you and your family!
#3: Plan Ahead with a Pantry Assessment & Shopping Preparations
Preparing your pantry in advance is an excellent way to ensure that you have everything you need to make delicious meals.
Start by assessing what foods you already have and what staples you should stock up on.
Make a shopping list of necessary items, so you don't overlook anything while navigating the store.
Also consider planning out meals for the week ahead and preparing ingredients beforehand, such as chopping vegetables or making a marinade.
With these simple steps, you can make sure that your pantry is always well-stocked and ready for whatever meal lies ahead!
You may also want to shop in advance for any special items, such as kosher items for Passover, as well as think about how best to store and prepare the items before you cook.
With a few simple steps, you can make sure that everything is organized and ready to go when it comes time to eat!
Celebrating the spring holidays is always a special time, and taking the steps to make your home feel festive can really set the mood.
I always like to bring the outdoors in by adding fresh flowers or decorations that evoke a sense of renewal and hope.
I also love to make my space cozy and inviting with comfortable blankets, warm lighting, and plenty of delicious food and drinks for gathering!
