its amazing how quickly life changes. it seems like right when you get settled in, another earthquake hits. our emotions can change so drastically due to an unfamiliar situation, and it can turn into a domino effect of changes in our lives. no one ever said this was easy...if it were easy, how would we progress? i'm so thankful for this amazing knowledge that i've received on my journey.
the effects of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ are visible each and every day. we are able to pray to our Heavenly Father, we are able to truly repent, and be forgiven. we live because of the divine example of faith that was laid before us. On the third day, He rose again. The Son of God, the Messiah, Savior, Redeemer, Alpha & Omega, Beginning & End, Prince of Peace, Advocate, Deliverer, Bridegroom, Hope of Glory. God's grace continues to set us free, He gave His only begotten Son so that we may have eternal life. Jesus Christ suffered alone, so that we will never have to. Just as Jesus promised to rise again, He promises other things through out the scriptures, such as forgiveness, strength, saving grace, love, and blessings of plenty, He is the same yesterday, today & forever. He will keep His promises, if we strive to remain faithful. the Resurrection is about so much more than Him coming to life again, He conquered death, there are no chains to bind Him, He is above all. He is Holy. He is perfect, and as a Christian (meaning to be Christ-like) we too must strive for perfection, we will never achieve it here, all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, but if we have sincere faith, engage in meaningful prayer & repent, we will someday be perfect.
i am a loved daughter of God, and that statement alone means so much more than one may think.
my Easter sunday was wonderful. lots of family time, prayer, nice lunch & dinner, decent weather... couldn't have asked for a better group of people to share it with.
love.
