What a gorgeous Easter Sunday 2010! This is our first easter with two children and it made me reflect on how truly gracious the Lord has been to us these past few years. I was thinking in the car on the way home from church, how painful it must have been for Mary to have seen her first born hanging on a cross, a most horrible death. I tried to imagine the torn feelings she must have had as a mother to let him go, to not truly understanding. I also imagine she must have felt such overwhelming JOY three days later, knowing that he arose and conquered death!! What a roller coaster of emotions that week must have been, and I get cranky if my schedule is changed even a little bit.
How awesome! The Lord is victorious in every way! He turns our darkness into light, and guides our every step. I don't have to worry or stress, because he planned my steps before I ever took them.... I pray as a mother that I can convey these deep and precious truths to my children, and extend grace to them and to my husband as the Lord has so graciously done for me. This was a glorious day!
