Easter Lily Poems

The Story The Easter Lily Tells

The Easter lily trumpet silently sounds,
New Life is here for all.
Just ask Christ into your heart,
And know love like never before.

The Easter lily's blossom of white,
Its color a silent message tells.
Stay pure in heart and true to the Lord,
And hope and joy will be yours.

The Easter lily's leafy stalk of green,
Tall and strong it grows.
Up towards heaven it reaches to remind us,
Of the promise of eternal life that can be ours.

The Easter Lily's Message

An Easter Lily I give you,
On this very special day.
The day we celebrate our Messiah,
And the message, for which His life, He gave.

Passionate, humble and serving,
Of our Father in heaven above.
Purity, hope and faith,
Our redeemer taught us to love.

An Easter Lily I give you,
A lovely reminder it is indeed.
That without our one and only Savior,
Eternal life there would not be.

Easter Sweets

My son has always been a little afraid to learn to ride his bike, especially on our rocky Pocono Mountain community roads. Since Easter was a beautiful Spring day, in the afternoon, my husband and I took my son to the school parking lot. There he could practice riding on a smooth paved surface. We were delighted when he rode his bike for the longest time ever with the most joy and confidence he has ever displayed so far. We both just wished he could do the same at home.

As we were about to pull into our driveway my son said, "Look! Yellow flowers." My husband stopped our truck for a moment so we could enjoy them. I said, "Bloomed for the first time ever on Easter day!" as my son said, "Ahhh... That's sweet."


This is the 2nd Spring we have lived in this rented house. No daffodils bloomed here the year before. The sight of them was an unexpected, beautiful treat.



After we pulled into our driveway, my son asked his dad to get his bike out of the truck. He had never done that before. He would just run into the house and start playing, leaving the fear of bike ridding behind.

My husband and I couldn't believe it when my son jumped on his bike and peddled off. Not a worry on his mind, just a huge smile across his face. It seemed like the sight of those daffodils filled his little heart with so much joy he forget his fear.

As I watched my son ride off and a tear of joy spilled down my cheek, I thought, 'Yes... The daffodils are sweet.' Then I thanked God for those daffodils, a symbol of new beginnings and rebirth. A symbol of the gifts made possible for us all through Jesus our Savior. Those gifts which are our true Easter sweets.

Easter Fun with Christ in Mind!

Easter is a lot of fun for kids! They color eggs, go on Easter egg hunts, get a basket full of candy, maybe a gift or two and go to an Easter Day parade. As a Christian Mom, I want to bring the message of Christ's sacrifice on the cross, rising from the dead and ascent into Heaven into the commercial Easter bunny fun. But how?

As a child, my Mom always boiled the Easter eggs and helped us color them on Good Friday because it is a vacation day from school. I follow the tradition with my son even though he doesn't start school until this September. Why not decorate your colored eggs with religious Easter stickers instead of the commercial Easter bunny ones? Stickers are big with young kids these days and there are so many different ones available.

If your kids are creative, they can make their own with sticker paper, a computer, clip art, a printer and scissors. When the egg color is dry and the stickers are being applied, have your Bible open to this verse:

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Depending on your children's ages, either explain what the verse means or ask them what it means to them.

I like to have an Easter egg hunt at home. I fill half the plastic Easter eggs with candy and the other half with little, inexpensive religious prizes. A small plastic cross ring or necklace, religious print balloon, eraser, what ever you can find that brings the true meaning of Easter into the commercial fun!

No basket full of Easter candy is ever complete without a chocolate cross and a Christian gift. Depending on the size of your Easter basket and your budget, there are many Christian gifts available. A Personalized Cross T-shirt, in pink for girls and blue for boys, can be rolled and wrapped for your child's Easter basket. An adorable Personalized Jesus Loves Me Teddy is the perfect centerpiece for your child's Easter basket and a cuddly Easter gift. And for infants, who don't get candle, you can't go wrong with this Personalized Lamb Baby Blanket.

If you are going to an Easter Day Parade, the whole family can wear Christian print T-shirts to help spread the message of Christ's sacrifice and promise of eternal life to the whole crowd!

Have fun with your kids this Easter and rejoice in the blessing of our Lord! God's forgiveness has no boundaries and Christ lives in Heaven offering us eternal life!
