Busy! Busy! Busy! And a Big Happy Easter to You!

I keep thinking it is already Wednesday & here it Tuesday. I have a feeling after Easter I'm going to totally crash! This week I've had three extra bulletins (that's a total of five). Plus the monthly newsletter that needs to be mailed out by Friday. The old copy machine at work is going to get tired of me printing stuff this week for sure...I only hope it doesn't give me problems.

It is a good busy though. I love what I do and I only pray that it will bring glory to my Lord and Savior.

But isn't it exciting to be celebrating Easter? I am amazed to think what Christ did to take away my sins -- the sins of the whole world. WOW!!! Can't you just imagine walking the streets of Jerusalem with him? Spreading out the palm branches. What would it be like to have been one of the disciples and watch in horror what he went through on that Friday? How would you have felt to see your Lord hanging there on that cross; to see him laid to rest in the tomb; and then to find his body gone?

Sometimes I think about these things and wonder if I would be able to stand up for him, or if I would have been one of the ones declaring "Crucify him! Crucify him!" I think of how he taught us that it's all about love, not about law. What if he came now & told us we were doing things all wrong? Would I trust him; would I follow him? I'd like to think that I would follow him, but I'm not sure about that.
What I am sure about is that I will be a part of that heavenly banquet. That he did indeed come to save my soul. And for that I stand in awe and sing his praises!
