Today is such a treasured day in the life of a Christian.  Those who believe in Jesus Christ as their Savior will conquer death and have eternal life. (Jn 1:25)  But the beauty of today is that Jesus Christ came to save everyone!  There are no exceptions, simply believe. I love to watch the kiddies hunt Easter eggs.  When I was a child, I was my momma's "baby"!  She would put on such elaborate egg hunts for me.  She would gather up cousins and the children of family friends and off we would go, usually out to a lake. We would swim, have hot dogs, eat watermelon; meanwhile, the parents would hide dozens of eggs filled with chocolate and goodies. But for my momma, this was my day.  My egg hunt.  :)  Every year, my mom would buy a golden egg and she would put something very special inside that golden egg.  Oh it varied based on my age, maybe a bracelet, a silver dollar, green money!  It was a prize to me and I was just giddy sea...

Today is Good Friday.  The day we recognize that Jesus Christ died on the cross for all.  Normally, I reflect on Good Friday but since we know that Jesus rose 3 days later to give us life, I tend to focus more on that then his death.  But this year is a somber year for me and I wanted to take some time to talk about this day in particular. Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were sinners, Christ died for us. Every day, every day, we sin.  We lie, we covet, we commit adultery.  We gossip, we slander we......... Guys, I have been near tears all day long because our Savior died for us in hopes that we would love one another.  Be kind to one another, demonstrate patience, goodness, gentleness, be joyful, have peace among one another.......have self control (Gal 5:22-23). Therefore, there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1 And I don't know if it is because we feel condemned ourselves, but...

"Hosanna to the Son of David!  Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the Highest!" Mt 21:9 ESV Wow!  Praise and glory be to our King in the Highest!  Today is Palm Sunday, and upon entering the sanctuary we had the school children fanning us with palm leaves. The kids are so cute! I just wanted to pause for a moment and recognize the magnitude of today, of this week, culminating in Sunday, a day that means eternal life for those who believe in Jesus Christ. You see, I have had a busy holiday season.  Some of you may know that my Dad was diagnosed with throat cancer.  Praise the Lord we found out that after a grueling time of treatment, they told us that the cancer is gone in the current x-ray.  They told us cautiously that we never know, it's cancer....but for now, we are going to claim it to be true in Jesus Name! and move on! :)  He still has a lot of healing to do; no need to focus on what we cannot change. At the first...
