Dear Friends and Family,
What a blessing it is to remember what Christ has done for us this Good Friday. How are you remembering His death and resurrection this weekend? Share with us! We would love to hear from you. We have heard a little from some of you on Facebook this morning. Our family has enjoyed playing hymns all day today. I have posted some of these on the left hand side for you to listen to. Later, we will be practicing our special music for Easter Sunday. This Sunday, we will have a sunrise service followed by breakfast with our Church family, and then the usual Sunday services. Then I have some surprises up my sleeve for my kids. :)
We never realized when we started up an account with Facebook what a blessing it would be!!! I doubt that the inventors of it ever realized how it would be used by the Christian community. At first, we were put off by questionable ads and apps. Several pop-up blockers and filters later, and we are enjoying it to the fullest in our own way. This morning, Good Friday, I logged on and read status after status with verses of Scripture and quotes from hymns all commemorating His death on the cross for us. My dear Christian friends scattered all over the globe each sharing what was on their hearts...what a rich blessing!! How I miss them all! But how wonderful it is to hear from them almost daily! This could never have been accomplished just a few short years ago! We hear about their struggles, their joys, their prayer requests, and their ministries.
It is my prayer that all my friends and family will take seriously the celebrations of the weekend. Allow yourself to be fully blessed by what the Lord has for you in your churches this Resurrection Sunday! Let Him work in your hearts! Look what He has done for you. What other King would leave His kingdom to live on earth, knowing that everyone would reject Him and eventually kill Him?
"Amazing love!! How can it be? That Thou, my God, should'st die for me?"
