I hope you had a wonderful Easter - celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus Christ!! We had a really nice day! It was so beautiful here - the sun was shining, there was a slight breeze, and the weather was perfect! I love California! After church and naps we headed out to the park for dinner and an Easter Egg Hunt - the kids all had so much fun . . . of course, there was candy, candy, and more candy! Lily was convinced that everything she found was "canny"!
We are blessed to attend an amazing church, Grace Community Church, to sit under the teaching of our Pastor/Teacher, John MacArthur, and equally blessed by the musicians. Today, one of my favorite singers, Jubilant Sykes, sang "Were you there" (one of my favorite songs) - it is such an amazing song - you gotta here him sing it - he is truly amazing!
Oh were you there when they crucified my Lord
(Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord
Were you there when they nailed him to the cross
Were you there when they nailed him to the cross
(Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when they nailed him to the cross
(Were you there when they laid him in the tomb
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb
Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb
Well were you there when the stone was rolled away
Were you there when the stone was rolled away
(Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when the stone was rolled away
I am completely overwhelmed by what my Lord did for me on the cross! Ellie's favorite song of late it My God is an Awesome God and I can't help but shout that from the rooftops - my God is an AWESOME God! I am forever grateful for His death on the cross so that I might have life eternal with Him in heaven.
I hope that this Easter has caused you to look at your own eternity and I hope you have the assurance that I do of where you will spend your eternity.
