Easter Announcement

With the advent of Easter,
my thoughts have turned to Him--
for His miracle of ministry; the ever so symbolic Last Supper; the bread and the wine; 
the washing of dust-covered feet;
the Garden and all that transpired therein;
the trial, the stripes, the thorn-plaited crown;
the bearing of the cross and the heavy walk to Golgotha;
the storms and the darkness of the tomb and the world;

Then, the glorious empty tomb...
the preeminent Resurrection on Easter morn.
Easter is about the rising, the rebirth, hope resplendent from the grave to the heavens...

And with all these ponderings, my heart turns inward...
...to the miracle of life beginning inside of me.

We celebrate the 3 days and the triumphant rebirth.

And this year, we celebrate our 3rd little child and the promise of birth.



Happy, Happy Easter!
