SPINACH

I'd Never Eat Spinach

I’d never eat spinach, because
I cannot stand the taste,
I’d rather nibble paper,
or a table,or toothpaste.
I would eat a calculator,
I would eat an eraser,
I might even eat a hall,
but spinach,
but spinach? No! Not at all.

Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple, and were going to the tomb. So they both ran together. —John 20:3-4

Living With Expectation

Read: John 20:1-10

Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple, and were going to the tomb. So they both ran together. —John 20:3-4

Bible In One Year: Judges 1-3; Luke 4:1-30

---

When the dark day of Jesus' crucifixion drew to a close, it seemed that the most wonderful of all lives had come to an end. For a few brief years, Christ had astounded the crowds and His followers with the wisdom of His teaching and the wonder of His miracles. But Jesus chose not to save Himself from the cross, and now His life was over. It seemed that nothing more could be expected of Him.

Hope returned, however, on that first resurrection morning. A painting by Eugene Burnand portrays Peter and John running to the tomb. Shortly after dawn, Mary Magdalene had told them that she and her friends had found the tomb empty. In Burnand's painting, the faces of Peter and John show contending emotions of anguish and relief, of sorrow and surprise, of despair and wonder as they race toward the tomb. Their gaze is eagerly fixed forward, turning the viewer's attention to the sepulcher. What did they find? An empty tomb—the Savior was alive!

Christ still lives. But many of us go from day to day as if He were still in the grave. How much better to look beyond the empty tomb to the One who can fill our lives with the power of His resurrection! —Dave Egner

Christ left the grave one glorious day
And vanquished death and sin;
He opened wide the gates of heaven
That we might enter in. —Anon.

The victim of Good Friday became the victor of Easter.

Happy weekend, everyone.

A Light Exists In Spring

A light exists in spring
Not present on the year
At any other period.
When March is scarcely here

A color stands abroad
On solitary hills
That science cannot overtake,
But human naturefeels.

It waits upon the lawn;
It shows the furthest tree
Upon the furthest slope we know;
It almost speaks to me.

Then, as horizons step,
Or noons report away,
Without the formula of sound,
It passes, and we stay:

A quality of loss
Affecting our content,
As trade had suddenly encroached
Upon a sacrament.

-- Emily Dickinson

Very nice, thanks !

[Alberta's Child]

A happy weekend to you too, Victoria!

I'll be in and out for most of the weekend, so maybe I'll see y'all here later.

Happy Saturday FRiends! It's "Photography Day"!

[ValerieUSA]

*LOL*
Photography Day!
How come I never heard of it? I was out and about today with my camera in the car, but didn't take any pictures. I'm such a slacker. But I did have a 2 hour lunch.
