At GiveSendGo, sharing the hope of Jesus isn’t just something we do—it’s why we exist.

It’s why we pray for every campaign.
It’s why we keep building the best platform possible—to fuel generosity in life’s best and hardest moments.
And why we celebrate Easter with our whole hearts.

Because without Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection, there would be no hope.

But because of Him, we have real hope. Living hope. Eternal hope.
And it’s not just hope for someday.
It’s hope for right now—hope that brings comfort in crisis, joy in the darkness, and peace when everything feels broken.

Many who turn to GiveSendGo are walking through unimaginable pain.
They’ve lost a job. A loved one. Been hit with tragedy or injustice.
And in those moments, Jesus offers more than just relief—He offers Himself.

That’s the good news of Easter:
Our hope has a name—Jesus.
And He’s alive.

“He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore…”
—Revelation 21:4 

That’s the promise of what’s to come:
No more pain. No more tears. No more death.

But have you ever thought about this stunning truth?
The greatest gift of eternity isn’t just the absence of pain, or grief, or death.
It’s Who is present.

We get God.

Forever.
Face to face.
No more sin standing in the way. No more shame. No more distance.
Just Him.

That is our inheritance and our hope.

“In your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
 —Psalm 16:11 

This is the heart of Easter.  
Jesus lived, died, and rose again—not just to save us from hell, but to bring us back to God.
To reconcile us to the Father.
To make us holy, beloved, His.

 “For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God…”
 —1 Peter 3:18 

And here’s what’s even more incredible:
We are God’s inheritance, too.

Let that sink in.
The Father—who has lacked nothing for all eternity—chose you.
He doesn’t just let you in with a sigh.
He wants you.
He welcomes you.
You are His joy.

It’s written all over Scripture

“…that you may know… the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints.”
—Ephesians 1:18 

 “All things were created through him and for him.”
 —Colossians 1:16 

 “Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory… that the love with which you have loved me may be in them,
and I in them.”
—John 17:24, 26

Jesus wants us with Him.
To see His glory.
To share in the love He’s always known.

That’s what Easter is all about.

The resurrection isn’t just a historical miracle.
It’s the proof that everything Jesus said is true.
That the price was paid.
That death doesn’t win.
And it’s why we can boldly draw near to the throne of grace—because we are His and He says we belong.

So… are we living like that’s true?
Are we living like we belong to God?

Are we excited—not just for heaven’s comforts—but for God Himself?
For His radiance? For His glory? For worship that never ends?

The hope of Easter isn’t just that we’re forgiven.
It’s that we’re wanted.
Brought near. Welcomed in.

Not to live for ourselves—but to shine out His love, forever.

And if you’ve never known that kind of hope—if you’ve felt far from God or unsure whether you could ever truly belong—know this:

Jesus is waiting with arms wide open.
He invites you into His presence. Into His family. Into a hope that will never fade.
The door is open. The price has been paid. And He’s not just offering you a better future—He’s offering you Himself.

Come to Him. Find rest. Find joy.
Find the One your soul was made for.

That’s why GiveSendGo exists:
To share the hope of Jesus, and invite the world to see—
He is risen… and we are His.
 

Take a breath and let it out. Today is a day of renewal.

In a world where relationships are strained and bridges are broken, we celebrate a day dedicated to unconditional love. Let us explore forgiveness, a vital aspect of the work carried out by GiveSendGo.  Forgiveness is a profound act of love that liberates us, while bringing about healing and redemption. Through forgiveness, lives can be changed, and we can experience a love beyond our understanding. The Bible teaches us that forgiveness is not just a moral duty, but a divine commandment. We have all made mistakes and fallen short of perfection. However, God's boundless love offers us redemption through forgiveness, providing a pathway back to freedom and the perfection we once knew. In the same way, we are called to extend this grace to others, even when they may not deserve it.

Forgiveness is not a display of weakness, but a testament to the strength of love. When we choose forgiveness, we release ourselves from the chains of resentment and bitterness that hold us captive. Through forgiveness, we discover true freedom and experience healing, enabling us to move forward with renewed hope and restored relationships. GiveSendGo exemplifies God's love in action, providing a platform for individuals to extend forgiveness and support one another in times of need. By fostering a spirit of generosity and compassion, GiveSendGo enables tangible expressions of forgiveness. Through this, people can encounter the profound power of God's unconditional love in their own lives.

Forgiveness is not a trivial act; it carries immense significance. It demands that we let go of our pride, ego, and desire for revenge. It requires vulnerability, humility, and an acknowledgment of our shared humanity. Yet, it is within this surrender that we find the strength to rise above our pain and walk in the mercy of our Heavenly Father. Choosing forgiveness entails setting aside our notions of justice and allowing God to assume the role of judge. The same grace we extend to others will be extended to us.

On Forgiveness Day, let us embrace the profound significance of forgiveness, drawing inspiration from the teachings of the Bible and the compassionate work of GiveSendGo. As we extend forgiveness to others, we not only liberate ourselves from the burden of resentment but also contribute to the healing of a broken world. May this day serve as a reminder that forgiveness possesses the power to transform lives, heal wounds, and inspire hope, creating an endless ripple effect of love and redemption. Together, let us bear the gift of forgiveness, embracing its weight and spreading its light to even the darkest corners of our world.

Take some time to read about forgiveness today: Colossians 3:13 Luke 23:34 Luke 6:37 Matthew 6:14-15

Holy Week, otherwise known as Passion Week, is a time of remembrance and reflection for Christians all over the world. While Holy Week doesn’t technically include Easter Sunday we still spend this time honoring the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. This week followed by Resurrection Sunday depicts the Greatest Story ever told (featuring themes of love, despair, a suspenseful climax, hopelessness, joy, and even a happy “ending”), a structure in which every other story in the world we’ve heard or read follows. 

Holy Week begins with Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey, a humble symbol of peace, but it became quickly apparent that the events to follow would be more complex and somber. In fact, the people who were there to celebrate Jesus’ entry, shouting “Hosanna!” and throwing down their cloaks and palm branches on the road for Jesus to walk upon, were the very same people who would later shout “Crucify him!”. They had a wrong understanding of why Jesus came in the first place. While they expected him to deliver them from Roman oppression, Jesus came to deliver them spiritually from their sins and the sin of the world. 

On Good Friday, Jesus was crucified, brutally whipped and beaten, and hung on a cross to die. Even still, Jesus gave his last breath willingly, no one took it from him. It was a moment of great sorrow and pain, and it seemed as though all hope was lost. But as the story goes, it was only the beginning of a greater narrative.

Easter Sunday, also known as Resurrection Sunday, is the day when Jesus rose from the dead. Something no one else could have expected. That moment marked his victory of life over death, and hope over despair. Jesus' resurrection proves he really is the Son of God, as he was claiming to be all along. It’s a testament to the fact that even death cannot defeat the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He’s been triumphant from the beginning. 

As Christians, we celebrate Easter not because of the egg hunts, fuzzy bunnies, or baskets jam-packed with chocolates and other goodies, but because of the significance of Jesus' resurrection. Jesus died on the cross to make a way for people to be saved and he rose from the dead so we could have life eternal with him. That was always God’s plan. 

We also see the power of God's love and grace. Jesus’ death and resurrection fulfilled the promises God made to us and to his people all the way back in the Old Testament - that He would provide the ultimate sacrifice who would make salvation possible. Jesus’ death and resurrection changed the course of history and it continues to provide hope and joy for us today. 

To summarize, Easter is a season of reflection and celebration, commemorating the incredible gift of salvation Jesus made possible for all of us through his life, death, and resurrection. His purpose was always to come in this way and through his resurrection, we are reminded that we can find eternal life through our belief, trust, and faith in Jesus Christ.
Why not accept this gift of salvation Jesus is so lovingly extending to you today?
