I had a nice 1/2 mile walk down my driveway, for just a little trip to the mailbox, and back with the wind boosting my stride. I enjoyed the warm sunshine kissing my face all the way; days like this make me want to lay in the hammock out back, but I have more paperwork to do. Now, back upstairs in our office, I can see the 2-acre lake from the window with the blue waves rippling toward the shoreline. Looking out across the green pasture one would never dream that it was snow covered just two days ago. I was happy to see that my petunias survived the 'white surpise' with no evidence of even a sting from the cold! We always have that last cold snap @ easter, but could this take the place of that historical event? That would be so terrific! In just under two weeks we will know for sure.
Easter is always good time to gather the family together for an afternoon of food & fellowship. No little ones to hunt easter eggs these days, so we just enjoy a great meal and visit; or maybe this year we can take in a matinee @ the movies to see "The Last Song". Sounds like a fun way to spend the day. All that will be fine, but the first order of the day is our worship honoring the Lord who gave his life on the cross and rose again all those years ago. He is the reason we can enjoy time together as heirs of the King. The resurrection of Christ gives us more reason to celebrate than anything the world can offer. As this special time of year approaches we can give thanks for many things, but most of all for Jesus. He's the reason for every season!
