Today is the most glorious day of the Christian faith. It is the day that we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ! The Lord is risen! He is risen indeed! Hallelujah! We heard a wonderful message at church - that we have hope because God is alive and well! And we celebrated the Eucharist with thankful hearts, full of hope!
It is also a day of family time together. I had 18 people at my house today for lunch. It was utter chaos - and a lot of fun! My parents, my daughter and her son, my sister and her husband, 2 of her 3 sons, their wives and children. The only family missing was my son, Kyle, who is based in New Orleans and had to work this weekend, and my sister's middle son, his wife and daughter. We all ate too much and needed a nap afterwards!
To anyone who reads my rambling thoughts on today, I pray that your Easter Sunday was spent in celebrating the resurrection of Jesus, and with your family. And if you don't know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, know that God is seeking you. He loves you so much that He gave His only Son to die on the cross for you, so that you might have eternal life. Today, receive Him into your heart so that you may also celebrate the resurrection of your Lord and Savior.
Blessings to all,
Elaine
