EASTER






















Easter Sunday was a day full of emotion. I found out my mom was put in the hospital in Indiana w/ blood clots in her lungs. I flew down Monday night to be there. She is doing much better but the blood clots will be there for years before they will dissolve. That scares me. I just hold tight to me verses about fear. Psalm 112:7. She is on blood thinners but becomes very tired easily.
I was bawling in church because of her but yet rejoicing at the same time because of God's sacrifice of his only son. When I put it in that perspective
(a parents) I am reminded how much God actually loves me and everyone. This Easter we really made it special for my family. Usually we do not dress up but we did. I wanted to make it a celebration for our family not just another holiday. It was nice to give honor to Christ and worship him as a family together. Here are some pics.

God has me so pumped!!!

I wanted to give you a follow up on my Feb 8th blog. So look there first then finish the rest of the story hear.....

I had invited this couple to church as well. I kept an eye out but every Sunday they were not there. Well two Sundays ago, I was walking into the bathroom and there they were standing there. Her health seemed to be going down hill. She is now in a wheel chair. But I was so excited they were there, and expressed that to them.

Next Sunday they came again. WOW! The message was perfect. It was about God's grace and accepting it. During our closing worship she asked if we could talk outside. I thought oh no her cancers back. They accepted Christ right then in there. But I am so thankful to God to allow me to share in this. I am so awestruck.

Then my husband says, babe you know you soon quite your negative job after you prayed with him. He said something profound to me. He said now you know your suffering there had a purpose. Man is God great or what? To give that to my husband to bring to my attention and spirit. God is faithful.
I am a little behind in sharing my scriptures. 5th-7th verses
1 Thessalonians 5 23-24
May god himself the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who called you is faithful and will do it.

Proverbs 4:23
Above all else, guard your heart for it is the well spring of life.

2 Corinthians 10:4
The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of this world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.
