I am so thankful to our Lord, who endured the cross for me (and you). Perfection who carried the weight of the world on His shoulders. Grace beyond measure. Love so deep and wide. Forgiveness removed as far as the east is from the west. Good news......
"But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. ...The Lord has risen indeed.."
Luke 24:1-2, 34
Thanks be to our Lord Jesus, Death has No sting!
Happy, happy birthday to our sweet MacKenzie! I really can't believe your are entering in the "teen" years. Your smile warms our hearts. Your grateful heart is a breath of fresh air. Your determination is inspiring! Daddy and I are so, so blessed to be called your parents. "Sweet girl, as you enter a new season of childhood, I pray that you would love Jesus more than you ever have. I pray that you will be able to feel His presence and grace in everyday situations- whether big or small. I pray for boldness in your words and the way you live your life. Remember God did not give you a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline. Always, always remember love- it never fails." Kenz, we are so proud of you. We love you more than you'll ever know- ever!
