HE LIVES!!

Oh to have been in Mary Magdalene's sandals on that first Easter morning so long ago. The fear and sadness at seeing Jesus' tomb empty.
The joy at hearing Jesus' voice call her name ..."Mary!" And being chosen to be the messenger to the disciples..."I have seen the Lord."
Each Easter morning it's all new to me - the joy, the knowledge that Jesus died, was raised from the dead...and HE LIVES! And WE LIVE! Our Pastor indeed has the Holy Spirit living in him as he did such a wonderful job with the service. From the beginning to the benediction and closing hymn, the entire service reaching out and sending a message of faith and promise and proof that Jesus is alive.
And so on this Easter Sunday, I pray you will be blessed with the joy of the risen Savior. That you will know He died for you, and lives - that you will live as well.
God's promise fulfilled through His Son.
HE IS RISEN ~ HE IS RISEN INDEED.
