HAPPY EASTER!

Hey everyone!

This is one of my favorite times of the year! Not because it is the spring season, although that is a wonderful event after a rough winter! No, I enjoy this time of year so much because of the new beginning and times of refreshing that always coincide with the resurrection of my Savior Jesus Christ!

I am so thankful that over 2,000 years ago, a man named Jesus came to this earth to die for my sins to set me free. The stripes He bore on His body was for the healing of mine! He took all of the shame and reproach that I deserve and in exchange gave me everlasting life! He is not dead! He is not in the tomb! He is risen and I am rejoicing!!!!

My daddy died on December 29, 2013. He is in paradise with Jesus today! My daddy is cancer-free! He is not disabled from a stroke. He is able to walk, run, jump, and wrap both arms around Jesus to thank Him for what He did at Mt. Calvary! My dad is finally able to experience what he lived his whole life to do...be in the presence of our Savior!

Heaven is sweeter to me with my loved ones there. I am looking forward to missing the torment of hell. I am eager to talk with the saints of old and see the beauty of heaven. I want to see an angel. But more than all of that, and even if none of that happened, I want to see Jesus! I want to kneel at His precious feet and thank Him for what He did for me. 

You see, Jesus saved me! He forgave me! He loves me! He blesses me! He helps me! He encourages me! He lifts up my head! He promotes me! He protects me! He heals me! He touches my mind! He carries me! He is with me!

Do you know Jesus Christ like that? I promise you that you will never, ever regret knowing Him. He is so amazing! He is so wonderful! He is so sweet and loving and kind. He wants to be the Lord of your life and He wants to live in your heart! If you only could see Jesus for who He really is and not what someone else says about Him, you would run to Him and fall at His feet and ask Him to save you, too! Don't wait! It's not too late! You can ask Him today to save you and He will do it!

Today is Good Friday and it is so good to know that Jesus died for me! He didn't stay on the cross, though. He didn't stay in the tomb, either! He is resurrected and sits on the right hand of the Father! He is alive forevermore! Hallelujah! HE IS RISEN!!!!

God bless you and I want to wish you all a very happy Easter!

Hugs,
