Life Means So Much

Teach us to count the days
Teach us to make the days count
Lead us in better ways
Somehow our souls forgot
Life means so much

- Chris Rice, Life Means So Much

Pangs of Death

My Bible study on the life of Christ is wrapping up just in time for Easter and this week has been bountiful with the blessings of scripture. I was saved at the age of six and grew up hearing the story of the cross and resurrection continually. Every Easter is a precious time for me, but this year, this Holy Week has been an exceptional blessing. (Praise be to God!) This verse is a gem from this morning. I hope it encourages someone else as much as it did me to think that it was NOT POSSIBLE for death to hold Jesus Christ! Amen!

P.S. I loved this so much that I'm adding it to My Sword for this year! Verse 7.1!

I made this card and thought it made a fitting "happy Thursday" post! Forgive the homemade-ness of the card and photography! I'm no photographer… all my blog pics are from my phone since I don't have a "real" camera.

We Are Having A Week Around Here...

We've been having a week and a half in the last seven days, if you know what I mean. Last night, I was reminding myself of something that I learned last summer. So, this reminder is for me:

If this is the worst thing that happens today, it's still a pretty good day.

Complaints

Something to ponder…

Complaining about an unchangeable seems to be a colossal waste of time. Complaining about something one can change makes a person look like a fool.

Just something I've been thinking about today...

Peace

Courage

Clothed in Linen

Clothed in linen, white and pure
Radiant, I'll not be demure

I'll fly swiftly to Your feet
When at last, that day we meet

With love and joy that knows no bounds
Gleefully, I'll give you crowns

Oh that I may see Your face!
Sadness? Fear? Not a trace!

To be with You forevermore...
My greatest joy, of that I'm sure.
