so... maybe no one is reading this... maybe I'm putting these "thoughts" out there available anywhere around this planet through the world wide web... and perhaps not a single soul is reading them... if you are I'd sure like to know. But, regardless of who or where you may be , here goes...
It's Easter today and you might be on top of the world... or you might be struggling to stand tall.
Well, congratulations. Today is the day we celebrate the resurrection. Not only is this event part of the very foundation of our faith, but it also was the place in history where God chose to step into time and take the punishment for every sin of man for all time. He defeated death and took the keys of hell giving us the final victory - in this life and through eternity.
His love knows no boundries! No matter where you are today, or where you have been NOTHING can come between the love of our God and you. He went to great lengths to save us. Rescue came and that is the beautiful thing today, wherever you are...
"...we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Rom 8:37-39
"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Rom5:8
"When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory.""Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?" The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." 1 Cor 15:54-57
