I got the idea for the title of this blog off of a plate hanging on my mother-in-law's wall at her house. I thought it was so cool!!
I love Easter because the church services are always so full! Prime time to help people come to Christ!
Pastor Wes George at FBC Rogers rocks my face off with his sermons, God really gave him a great gift! Today we read 1 Peter 1...of course because it talks all about the resurrection of Christ! I get so emotional because of the story, it's so humbling! My goal for this year is to help more people come to Christ. I have so many people in my life who don't know him which makes me so sad because no one ever knows when they are going to go. About three years ago I lost my grandpa. I loved him SOOOO much! He was always a joy to be around and you were always guarenteed a laugh, but the day he died was not as sad as I always thought it would be. Now don't get me wrong, I was sad and to this day you will catch me crying randomly just thinking about the joy and fun that I felt and had when he was around. However, 2 days before he died, he accepted Christ! What a joy!! I can live knowing that he is celebrating with Christ in Heaven which makes me so, unbelievably happy!
So, grandpa did it, I know the rest of my family and friends can too! It makes me so excited to see people coming to Christ! My favorite part of church, besides the worship, is when people get baptised (especially young children and senior adults). Everytime I see someone go into the baptistry at church, you can look at me and guarenteed, there will be a big, fat grin slapped on my face because that person is going to have a great journey whether it's 50 years or 2 days. I remember my grandpa being so sick and exhausted that he couldn't even eat; the day he accepted Christ, he ate and laughed and talked and was the fun, joyous person I knew my whole life!
My point is, even the most lifeless people can glow the brightest glow when they know their Lord and Savior!
I don't have my Bible in front of me now, and I don't know it as well as I should, but I encourage all of you to open one up to 1 Peter 1 (it's very short) and read about the miracle of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ--because "He who knew no sin, became sin" so that you can have ETERNAL life in Heaven!
Hope everyone had a great Easter and a great weekend!
