We Can Laugh And We Can Dance, Because He Has Risen

He is risen! Just like he said.  His word; Truth.  He is risen.  He is coming back again.  All of creation will bow.  While we wait.  We seek to live as He did.  We bend knees to the ground in humble submission, as we ponder the walk to the cross.  And as the day dawns we live in hope.  Matthew 28:6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. We live in the grace of a RISEN LORD.  Death could not hold him.  Acts 2:24 But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, ... View Post

The Hope In Good Friday

Maundy Thursday

It's Maundy Thursday.  A Holy Day.  The last day that Jesus walked this earth.  He knew his journey.  He willingly went.  The Cost of The Cross.   Click on the link.  My thoughts from last year are still echoed in my heart today, "The journey Jesus took to the cross is the defining piece of my faith. He came into Jerusalem Hailed as King and left Jerusalem via the cross.He took on the dirty and broken; so that we might live. He died to save a wretch like me; when He himself was sinless." ...

Revisiting, “The Rest of The Story”

It's April first.  I wake heavy with grief.  It has no boundaries.  Time limits.  Warnings.  I reflect on last years post.  God is not finished. . . yet.  We, each one of us, are valued.  Created with a purpose.  For a reason.  Read on, and if your heart is weary; may you be encouraged.  If your heart soars today; may you be an encouragement to others.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Repost from April 3, 2014 ````````````````````````````````````````````````  I don't ...

Time Marches On

Her future.  Before her.  So exciting.  Student accepted day.  College.  Questions.  Trying to decide.  Which school is the best.  All this.  When it's been 20 months.  20 months since he last drew a breath.  20 months since our world seemed right.  And now she,  my daughter, on the edge of the beginning.  The emotions swirl.  Torment, yet excitement.  I can not forsake one because my heart longs for the other.  The speed increases.  My mind can not keep ...
