When the first flowers of spring bloomed in our yard, my 5-year-old son waded into a patch of daffodils. He noticed some debris from plants that had expired months before and remarked, Mom, when I see something dead, it reminds me of Easter because Jesus died on the cross. I replied, When I see something alivelike the daffodilsit reminds me that Jesus came back to life!
One reason we know Jesus rose from the grave is that, according to the gospel of Luke, He approached two travelers headed to Emmaus 3 days after His crucifixion. Jesus walked with them; He ate dinner with them; He even gave them a lesson in Old Testament prophecy (24:15-27). This encounter showed the travelers that Jesus conquered the graveHe had risen from the dead. As a result, the pair returned to Jerusalem and told the disciples, The Lord is risen indeed! (v.34).
If Jesus had not come back to life, our faith as Christians would be pointless, and we would still be under the penalty of our sin (1 Cor. 15:17). However, the Bible tells us that Jesus was raised to life for our justification (Rom. 4:25 niv). Today, we can be right with God because Jesus is alive!
Read: Luke 24:13-34
Psalm 90:17 Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us. And make the work of our hands stand strong. Yes, make the work of our hands stand strong.
OH LORD, we ask for Great MERCY and Amazing GRACE to be upon our Military men and women. May they join in prayer and petition, asking from YOU that which they need to protect this country and our people, STRENGTH. Strength to persevere, strength to remain faithful, strength to be courageous, strength to help the weak, strength to endure sorrow and pain, strength to stay committed. OH LORD, keep them as we entrust them to YOUR CARE..Amen.
Happy Easter Kitty Mittens !!!
Adding my prayers for our Heroes, their families and our beloved Nation.

This is wonderful: they shall Never Perish, Neither shall Any Man Pluck them out of My Hand. My Father, Which Gave them Me, is Greater than All; and No Man is able to Pluck them out of My Father's Hand.'
