Monday Multitudes 799-821

Just as everyone dies because we all belong to Adam, everyone who belongs to Christ will be given new life. But there is an order to this resurrection: Christ was raised as the first of the harvest, then all who belong to Christ will be raised when He comes back. 1 Corinthians 15:22-23

The concept of death makes us feel uncomfortable. We fear it because not one of us knows how or when we will die. Fortunately, the most reassuring news in the universe brings hope to our fears. Jesus, the only person who has experienced death and lived to tell about it, promises eternal life in heaven with God to all who trust in Him!

On this day that the Lord has made I am thankful for;

a family who has learned lessons about death and is now all the more knowledgeable and a little less afraid

a busy weekend full of fun family activities

time to spend with friends

time to spend with family

banana bread with cream cheese frosting

cards and notes of sympathy and thanks for my husband

a fun project for my husband to keep him busy this spring

having a job just blocks from my home when the price of gas is rising

plenty of recent work for my husband so we can pay the bills

a full session for the supper club again this month

a wonderful smart, sensible sister to share

a warm place to be on cold spring nights like this one

the hint of a Bible study in the works

a piano recital piece that is finally coming together

homemade gifts

time to braid my daughters hair

supper with extended family

breakfast with Grandma and Grandpa after church

running with Maleah

the Gavinator's endless quest for understanding of the world around him

little girls that still want to cuddle sometimes







holy experience

I am certain there will be banana cake with cream cheese frosting in heaven, although I hope I get some of yours before we go..
