The Grace of God

On this weekend, whether you are a Christian or not, I hope you take a minute to think about what this weekend really is about.  A man, like you and I was born on this earth to fulfill a task.  A task appointed to Him by the creator of this world, the creator of you and I.

Yes this man who was perfect in life, no sin touched Him or tempted Him.  He loved like no other, wept for all man kind, befriended all  He came across.  Was killed on this day.  Why?  For you and I.  So that we could be cleansed of our sins...great and small ones...ones we don't even think about.

He loved us all so much that He offered Himself as the sacrifice and it is all so simple now for us to accept this gift He gave us.  We only have to believe that His death happened and that in a few days He was resurrected in order to sit at God's side and speak on our behalf to God, to show God our goodness.

Wow, one day I will be there in the presence of God and Jesus and will have the opportunity to finally say thank you in person...Wow I can't wait...

But I don't really have to wait because every day of my life I have promised to Jesus that I would work on myself that I would model after Him...that I would learn to offer Grace and Mercy to others and I would strive to love everyone just as He did.  That is so freeing, so amazing and so wonderful that I want to tell you about it so you can experience what I do everyday...

I look for my saviour in every part of my day...and I find Him...every day, even the really bad ones He is there with me I could not do life without Him...wanna see what it's like?  It is truly amazing...come on give it a try.

I'd love to show you the way...

Happy Easter

Such a powerful time of the year so many things going on...spring, new beginnings and most importantly the celebration of what Jesus did for us on the cross...just think about it. He died so that we may live and have eternal life in a place filled with other believers. The sacrifice goes beyond what our minds can even comprehend. No matter what we do through Jesus we are saved once we accept what happened 2012 years ago on a small hill. He hung and died on a cross to pay the ultimate sacrifice for our sins and then 3 days later He rose from the dead so that He can reign in Heaven awaiting our arrival...Thank you so much for loving me so much!

Ah...it is such a great thing to think about. While I've been busy sewing these past few days I have been thinking about who my gifts are going to...my 3 lovely daughters and praying for them to learn and accept this great gift from Jesus.

I have made little treat bags for their "goodies" for Sunday. They were very easy to make and a lot of fun...I used some of the "new" quilting knowledge I have acquired and am looking forward to my next...more quilty project!
