Coffee Talk

This week has been hectic as we are preparing for Easter. There is lots to be done - both for church and home. I am very excited that so many of my family from out of town are coming to visit and get to go to church with us!

All month long, the children at church (BridgeKidz) have been doing special lessons on getting ready for Easter... learning about Jesus and the cross, and what it means to them personally. My students are learning about how they participate in the Cross and the Resurrection. That God's immense love for us required the greatest sacrifice. The power of that love cancelled out all our wrong, and left us forever changed. Enabling a relationship with the one true God.

I was struck the other day about how much I am getting ready for Easter - physically. But, I had yet to really pause, reflect, and internalize. I don't want this Easter to pass without truly reflecting on the cross. And the grace. And the divine love for me. The love that has left me changed from the inside out.

And... I want this to be the center of my focus, not only on March 23rd, but everyday of my life.
