He is Risen!

Christ is Risen indeed! As born-again Christians we celebrate daily that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is alive. But, having grown up in a liturgical tradition I love the remembrance and celebration of Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter. I love Sunrise services and remember fondly going to them in a sheep pasture in hilly Massachusetts with my grandparents. I was looking forward to visiting a friend's church as they were doing a walk thru reenactment of the last days of Christ's life. I was looking forward to having breakfast and service with my church family. I was looking forward to Easter dinner with my inlaws and my sister and her family. But, I stayed home with the sick children. Dear Husband took the two older boys to service with cough drops and tissues in their pockets and strict orders not to cough on anyone! and my inlaws packed up Easter dinner and brought to our home, yum. I can and did and do celebrate that He is alive and He lives in me! Hope you had a blessed Resurrection Day, no matter where or how you spent it!
