Because Your love is better than life, my lips will glorify You.

Easter


Our celebration began March 28th and hasn't stopped, yet. We've colored eggs, gone on two hunts, played with cousins, and participated in the church's Easter Cantata...well, Bean did. (So did Mimi and Opa - hooray!) I think we might have one more celebration still. 




Bug won a prize at the Vineyard's hunt. He found a slip of paper in an egg and turned it in to claim "1 Medium Bunny." Our friend, Miss Rachael, declared, "Well, that must be his name...Medium." And so it is. It's bright pink and sparkly and is a good snuggler.



Best of all, we've had some talks about Jesus. Mean people killed Him, He went to the tomb, and when His friends looked for Him, He wasn't there. He had gotten up and walked away. Miracle #1. He was so strong that death could not keep Him.  We are sad because we sin, but He can clean our hearts.  It gives us the chance to know our God and be with Him...miracle #2.

And to bring the peace of heaven into our lives here. Miracle #3. Extravagant. Yes, please...more peace. 

Have a wonderful Resurrection Day! (click for Resurrection Buns recipe.)
