We’ve Got the Power
I can’t help myself. I am still living in the wonders and miracles of our Lord’s Easter/Resurrection life AND in our resurrection life. Colossians 1:13 says “He rescued us from the power of darkness and brought us safe into the kingdom of His dear Son.” God was in control when He placed Jesus into Mary’s…
Let’s Talk About It Some More
I mean. Let’s talk about what the resurrection of our Lord really means to us. I can’t let it go. The resurrection of our Lord changes everything. He proved NOTHING is impossible with God. He proved that what He said would be. Jesus said to Martha after her brother, Lazarus died and was buried: “I…
Behind Closed Doors
Ever say: “I’m waiting for doors to open”, meaning a job opportunity, or patiently waiting for a store to open its doors, or the cash windfall that you could sure use that’s behind those closed doors? Remember when we placed our hands and fingers in a position to show “Here’s the church; here’s the steeple.”…
40 More Days of Easter
Hold it! The Easter season (the resurrection of our Lord and His time on earth before ascending to heaven) is still underway. For 40 days after His resurrection, Jesus was “in and out” of places and people’s lives during that time. He was showing up when they least expected Him. Can you imagine being one…
It’s a Good Day!
Today is Good Friday – the day Jesus was crucified. Without this day, Christ’s death on the cross would lose its meaning. The resurrection of Jesus is the pinnacle of our faith, but the death of Jesus is what makes it all possible. Jesus never wavered in His resolve to walk the lonely, painful path…
A Brand New Life
Last June, my son’s family’s precious 14-year-old Havanese, Bentley, went to doggy heaven. We closed that chapter of caring for him and making him feel comfortable, but the love for him will never leave us. We’ll forever cherish the precious memories of Bentley growing up with my four Wuerch grandsons. It really is like losing…
Up Up & Away
We have been in the Easter season up until today, May 18th, which is notably called “Ascension Thursday”! It has been 40-days since Jesus was raised from the dead and eyewitnesses saw Him showing up to give them His “famous last words”. Acts 1:3 verifies it: “After His suffering, He presented Himself to them and…
Surprised by Great Love
In these in-between days from Jesus’ resurrection to His ascension, I enjoy reading about the beautiful “surprise” stories that verifies that Jesus really came back to life and moved about to prove it. At first those who witnessed Him alive were startled and then they were elated that their Savior lived. I love the story…
Forty More Days of Easter
HOLD IT! We’re not done yet! I took the bunnies and Easter eggs down from my front door’s vignettes, but the cross still hangs along with Springtime decor’. I am still reminded that there were 40 days before Christ’s ascension. The Easter season (the resurrection of our Lord and His time on earth before ascending…
Let’s Take a Walk
I’ve loved seeing the Easter photos of families enjoying their Easter celebrations – their new Easter clothes, meals together, and egg hunts. My youngest two grands (16 and 18) still hunt for the eggs that their mama “rabbit” hid in their back yard. I know Mama Rabbit’s story – she wants to hold onto the…
