Happy Easter!

What a lovely weekend! First, I just praise the Lord for the sacrifice. I mean, think about it. Really think about it. Jesus dies on the cross just for me! So that I don't have to burn up in hell forever! It's so amazing. I don't deserve it, but He loves me that much. I'm just so amazed. I heard this song, and I keep singing the chorus in my head because it says it pretty well. Here are the lyrics:

Jesus Messiah

By: Chris Tomlin

He became sin
Who knew no sin
That we might become His Righteousness
He humbled himself and carried the cross

Love so amazing
Love so amazing

Chorus:
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah
Lord of all

His body the bread
His blood the wine
Broken and poured out all for love
The whole earth trembled
And the veil was torn

Chorus:
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah
Lord of all

All I hope is in You
All I hope is in You
All the glory to You, God
The light of the world

Chorus:
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah
Lord of all

I just thought this song was amazing!

Anyway....the kids had a fabulous weekend too. We kept trying to explain the importance and I think Joanna got it somewhat, but the boys just looked at us with blank stares. That's okay though, we'll just keep telling them and Lord willing, one of these days, it'll click!
