Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in Texto Diario, Lunes 10 de abril 2017
Tienes que amar a Jehová tu Dios con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma y con toda tu mente (Mat. 22:37).
http://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/4/10
Joven, ¿sabes qué puedes hacer para que crezca el amor a Dios en tu corazón? Meditar en el regalo más grande que Dios te ha hecho; él envió a su Hijo para rescatarnos del pecado y la muerte (2 Cor. 5:14, 15; 1 Juan 4:9, 19). Dedicar tiempo a pensar en ese rescate y en sus muchos beneficios hará que valores cada día más lo que Jehová ha hecho por ti. ¿Cómo debes ver el rescate? El siguiente ejemplo te ayudará a entenderlo. Imagínate que te estás ahogando y alguien te rescata. ¿Te secarías, te irías a casa sin decir una palabra y te olvidarías de lo que pasó? ¡Por supuesto que no! Estarías muy agradecido con esa persona, ¿verdad? ¡Y cómo no, si le deberías la vida! Pues eso es lo que les debemos a Jehová y a Jesucristo; eso y mucho más. Gracias a ese gran acto de amor, tenemos la increíble esperanza de vivir para siempre en el Paraíso. w16.03 2:16, 17

Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in Daily text, Monday, April 10. 2017
You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.—Matt. 22:37.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/4/10
One of the best ways that you can grow in your love for Jehovah is to meditate on the greatest gift Jehovah has provided—the ransom sacrifice of his Son. (2 Cor. 5:14, 15; 1 John 4:9, 19) Thinking about the ransom and what it means for you will motivate you to respond appreciatively. Your response to the ransom might be illustrated this way: Imagine that someone rescued you from drowning. Would you simply go home, dry yourself off, and forget about what was done for you? Of course not! You would certainly feel indebted to the person who rescued you. The fact is, you would owe that person your life! We owe Jehovah God and Jesus Christ much more. Because of this great act of love, we now have the incomparable prospect of living forever on a paradise earth! w16.03 2:16, 17

Do the traditions of Easter have anything to do with the resurrection?
The customs of Easter involving bunnies, colored eggs, candles, and lilies were all adapted from pagan religions, as was the name Easter itself. None of these things have anything to do with the resurrection of Jesus, which Easter purports to represent. Does it matter ?
Yes - God’s Word commands us to separate ourselves from false religion and to “worship the Father with spirit and truth.”

The Wikipedia article on Easter Egg gives a picture of one these styled eggs and says it is from a Greek Orthodox Church https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_egg:
Red coloured Easter egg with Christian cross, from the Saint Kosmas Aitolos Greek Orthodox Monastery
I suspect the same. The writer probably came across the same idea that is also presented in the Wikipedia article:
The Christian custom of Easter eggs, specifically, started among the early Christians of Mesopotamia, who stained eggs with red colouring "in memory of the blood of Christ, shed at His crucifixion".[6][7][8][9]
That idea isn't a perfect fit for the rest of the article about paganism, therefore, it probably seemed useful to replace "the blood of Christ" with "blood of sacrificed infants." You have to admit that the latter has a more pagan ring to it.
By the way, the references linked as 6,7,8,9 in the quote above point to some overlapping evidence, most of which sounded very weak to me.

EASTER—FERTILITY WORSHIP IN DISGUISE
Promoted as a celebration of Christ’s resurrection, Easter is actually rooted in false religion. The name Easter itself has been linked to Eostre, or Ostara, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of the dawn and of spring. And how did eggs and rabbits come to be associated with Easter? Eggs “have been prominent as symbols of new life and resurrection,” says the Encyclopædia Britannica, while the hare and the rabbit have long served as symbols of fertility. Easter, therefore, is really a fertility rite thinly disguised as a celebration of Christ’s resurrection.*
Would Jehovah condone the use of a filthy fertility rite to commemorate his Son’s resurrection? Never! (2 Corinthians 6:17, 18) In fact, the Scriptures neither command nor authorize the commemorating of Jesus’ resurrection in the first place. To do so in the name of Easter, therefore, is to be doubly disloyal.

Yes, Easter is not a Christian Holiday as you see, what does the Christ have to do with colored eggs? I have a funny picture but maybe you'd wouldn't like it? It just shows us there is no Christ in Easter.
@The Librarian The picture gives it away with being red and crosses on them? Have you read anywhere these are used in Greek Orthodox Churches? ??
