Sundays Coming

We see in that cross a love so amazing so divine that it loves us even when we turn away from it, or spurn it, or crucify it. There is no faith in Jesus without understanding that on the cross we see into the heart of God and find it filled with mercy for the sinner whoever he or she may be.

Which brings us to Sunday:) What a miracle to know this, and what a humbling feeling to accept this. He died, He rose, He's coming for me, and all I have to do is believe? I have the privilege to love Him, and for that I am ever thankful. It sounds so very simple.... because it is, and I think that is also what so often makes it hard to accept. On Sunday He rose from the dead. One day He's coming, what a glorious day!

On a lighter note, during communion on Friday, Kobe swiped a piece of bread before we could stop him. I didn't quite know what to do so I leaned over and asked him if he knew what the bread was for. Oh yes he knew! Rubbing his arm he said "so he can make all my blood white as snow!" Well dear boy, you'll never be white as snow, and I hope I'm not either, but he didn't mean it as in his skin colour. Although I will make a conscious effort to not sing that song ever again;) He knew what he was talking about, as well as a 5 year old understands, and it warmed my heart so. He was so excited to take part and I hope his excitement for Jesus continues and grows his entire life. What an honor to be his mommy:)

Well, I should head to bed, big day of holiday traditions tomorrow, and big day of thanking my Jesus for the promise. The promise of eternity with Him, the promise of being reunited with my sister, the promise of love.

Praise the Lord, Oh my soul, Praise the Lord......

My First Post

Well, I guess I have now started my blog. I hope it continues. I am not a writer, nor a speller, but I am a mother of 2 little children which may provide some entertainment making this blog somewhat interesting at times. Enjoy my predictable and at times boring life:)

So today started last night...... what? Yes, with vomit and gagging coming from the bedroom. My heart always breaks for my children when they're sick. To be completely honest, I have a lot more patience for my children when they're sick. After I bathed and rocked my little boy after everything was cleaned up (thanx to my amazing husband) and then finally went to bed. But not long after, me and my girl were also not feeling well so I haven't slept much, hence our day starting last night:) But thanx to Jesus caring, my wonderful momma, and an awesome Dr, we are now on meds that should kick in sometime before the start of Easter celebrations tomorrow! Oh, did I mention that sometime in between this all, we took our puppy to get fixed and we all felt really really bad for him too. He seems to be doing fine so that is a relief! So that was our day, and although it wasn't what I had in mind, it was a blessing to spend "love time" with our boy, then later with our girl, and still some with our puppy. So very much to be thankful for and trying to see the positive in every moment is really good for me:)

But as I think of this, I think of what Jesus' day was like the day before "Good Friday". Words can not be used to describe what He went through in preperation for this day. Sweating blood, asking His Father to take this cup from Him, Exhausted from sorrow (Luke 22) aware of what was to come. For me? For you? Yes! What can I do but praise Him and give Him my heart, on this day of remembering, and everyday until I walk in His Heavenly presence....thank you my friend!!!

So for anyone who bothers to read this, my prayer tonight for you & I is that we will see past the holiday fun and take a deep look into His word and turn our eyes to Him.

Goodnight
