FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
|
May the bunny, the eggs, and the baskets remind us of a fresh start and a new life;
May the shining, delighted face of a child remind us to remain open to God's miracles;
May the love and laughter of family and friends remind us of a love like no other and joy everlasting;
Because He lives....
Happy Easter!

One of my favorite songs.
Thanks WS
Matthew 28:6 "He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay."
Because He Lives
God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus; He came to love, heal and forgive; He lived and died to buy my pardon, An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!
Chorus Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives!
How sweet to hold a newborn baby, And feel the pride and joy he gives; But greater still the calm assurance: This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!
Chorus Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives!
And then one day, I'll cross the river, I'll fight life's final war with pain; And then, as death gives way to vict'ry, I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
Chorus Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives!

Thanks Walden - And DD, how bout this one - Its One of my FAVs
And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior's blood! Died he for me? who caused his pain! For me? who him to death pursued? Amazing love! How can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me? Amazing love! How can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
He left his Father's throne above so free, so infinite his grace!, emptied himself of all but love, and bled for Adam's helpless race. 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, for O my God, it found out me! 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, for O my God, it found out me!
Long my imprisoned spirit lay, fast bound in sin and nature's night; thine eye diffused a quickening ray; I woke, the dungeon flamed with light; my chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee.

Lovely. Happy Easter - hope everyone has a nice one. I refrained from coloring eggs this year because I failed to boil my eggs sufficiently last Easter. It was quite interesting to say the least.

But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our lord Jesus Christ.
Yes, he is risen! He is risen indeed!

To all, a most blessed Easter. Let us be thankful for the gift of our families, our health and well-being, and all of our mental and physical faculties this Easter. Most importantly, let us be thankful for the unfathomable gift of merciful love that was rendered this week 1,981 years ago, in the person of Jesus of Nazareth, and the great hope that sprang forth when he conquered the great mystery and fear, death.

If you enjoyed the Seder last night, Good Passover!
safe journey to those traveling to Mecca now!
It's almost noon here, where in year's past every business in town would close until 3 p.m. in rememberance of God reaching across the chasm to save us.......
Bless Easter to all indeed!
