COMPASSION

Easter, easter, easter,...

Jeej, it’s that time again! But what is even greater is the story behind it.

Jesus came to the earth, to our level, just to die for our sins so that we may have eternal life. Who would do that for us except Jesus? 

Many of you have probably heard this thing so many times. But it stays (and it always will stay) amazing!!!

But today let‘s look at it a little differently than the classical „easter surmon“ :)

So Jesus came to this earth. He left the most amazing place where He had everything that you could possibly imagine, where He was „royal“ and everything was perfect. He left that place to come to earth so that we could have eternal life. He lowered himself to our level  and took our mistakes so that we could live, so that we could see the splender that he has (=> heaven). Jesus showed such great compassion that it’s just stunning!

Now in our lives we can take an example from Jesus. 

Everyone has people around them that need help or atleast need someone that listens to them.

But we are so selfcentered. Often we don’t even see that others are going through ruff times because we are so focused on our own little (daily) things like what will we wear, eat, do or how we feel, how we can be the most confortable and stuff like that. But they are so unnecesary. We should rather put our focus on people in need. Focus on how you can help people, how you can show compassion to people around you. It doesn‘t need to be big: sometimes a small message or just a kind word will change someones day completely. You can show compassion even by just listening to them and focussing for a while on their need.

Here I have some little tips for you guys that might help:

-„Lower“ yourself to their level. So I mean understand how the person feels in their situation so that you may help them better

-Speak kind words and encourage them but not by making their problem „worthless“.

-You can ask them if they need help. They might not necessarily need anything else than kind words and someone to talk to but still give them the oppertunity to ask for help.

=>So now while you reflect on what Jesus did on the cross 2000 years ago, also think about what you can do to share that love that you get from God.

Show compassion to others like Jesus showed compassion to us and share His compassion with the world!

Easter egg decoration!

Hi there!

I know, Easter is already over but here are still some ideas how to decorate your eggs. We used different methods! Here are some:

A) cook white eggs

B) colour them* (use egg colours, you can buy them in the shop and the instructions are normally on the package)

1/ C) draw with food markers pictures on your eggs -> you can choose what you draw on them ;-)

2/ C) put egg tattoes on the eggs (you can find them in shops with the instructions on the back)

3/ C) colour your egg with another colour -> that means that the colours kind of mix

4/ C) if you just want coloured eggs, your done!

*we coloured our eggs with small colour tablets (you can find in shops) -> 1) cook eggs

2) put in bowls a bit of vinegar and hot water + the colour tablet

3) put the egg in the mixture as long as you are satisfied with the colour

4) if you want to mix colours, then put the egg in another bowl (with the colour) for a few seconds

5) dry your eggs with kitchen paper

6) Voilá
