well.. easter is just about here! im sad because i am going to be in ohio visiting family all easter weekend-- so im gonna miss yall! but i hope that yall are preparing your hearts for the whole season.. i know how that is. but before the wonderful triumph of Christ over death, there is the most beautiful act of love for His children-- the crucifixtion.and even though it is the greatest love story ever told, it still wrenches my heart to think how undeservingly He did that for me. i know that im one of those people who hates to get punished for something i know i didnt do, so i cant even begin to imagine how hard it had to be for a SINLESS man to die a criminal's death. but then we see the wonderful promise fulfilled in a way never done before-- Christ rose from the dead. how truly amazinggg! just keep that in mind this week, as i too try. love yall!
