☀ Finding HOPE this EASTER! ☀

This Easter, Resurrection Sunday, will be unlike Easter Sundays past, as many churches will only be meeting on-line and families (mine included) will not be gathering, as usual, for a special dinner or Easter egg hunt.

In years past, I have always looked forward to this Sunday, seeing everyone all dressed up, the ladies wearing pretty springy colored dresses, the gentlemen wearing suits or polos, the children wearing adorable outfits with bunnies embroidered on their collars and generally everyone looking their Sunday best as we hear the good news that Jesus has risen!


And while the day itself this year will certainly be different, the message remains the same...

"For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish,
but have everlasting life."

~John 3:16 KJV

That is the HOPE that I cling to and believe in with all of my heart. I have faith that The Lord will see us through this challenging time.

In the meantime, as we pray and wait through this phase, with many of us staying at home, here are some family-friendly programs you may enjoy watching this weekend to uplift your spirit... including "When Hope Calls," which is pictured here...

I hope you all have a healthy and Happy Easter weekend!

I've been thinking of you all as we go through this time. My heart is with those staying at home and those being careful when they leave their home for work or groceries.

Even though we are social distancing in person, it's also been a good time to stay socially in close contact via technology with family and friends, and I'm sure many will be doing just that this Easter Sunday.

I will be watching church services online with some of my family, and I plan to watch Christian evangelist and missionary Franklin Graham's Easter service this Sunday morning on Fox News at 10AM/9c.


I will be rejoicing this Easter Sunday that Jesus is Risen!

Because of Christ's great sacrifice on the cross, I am grateful and humbled that I am forgiven of my sins.

May the Light of our risen Lord touch your heart and shine on you...

Love and Easter Blessings, Net

SHINING HIS LIGHT:

"If you declare with your mouth,
“Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart
that God raised Him from the dead,
you will be saved."
~Romans 10:9

☀☀☀☀☀☀☀

Prayer of Salvation:

"God, I know I am a sinner.

I believe Jesus was my substitute when He died on the Cross.

I believe His shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection were for me.

I now receive Jesus as my Savior.

I thank You for the forgiveness of my sins,

the gift of salvation and everlasting life,

because of Your merciful grace.

In Jesus name, I pray...

Amen."
