Friday's Fave Five #475

Hi everyone. Welcome to Friday's Fave Five. This was a bit of an overwhelming week due to some health and other issues for one of my parents that we are dealing with. It has consumed my heart, mind and time.  Even though I did not do a post this week due to time constraints I still wanted to leave one of my favorite reminders of what Easter is all about. You know I love Christmas and all it entails and the celebration of God coming to earth, but it is Easter that really captures me. All of my faith hinges on what Jesus accomplished on that brutal cross, but the story doesn't end with the cross, praise God, for Sunday brought the  glorious resurrection, for me and for you!  And now we can have that relationship with God that He created us for, we can become His sons and his daughters, if we just believe.   It's not about religion, the Pharisee's had plenty of that, it's about relationship.  Thank you Jesus for what you did!

Have a wonderful Easter celebration and I will see you back next week.

Well I hope you had a good Easter despite all your worries and that things are getting better. We had family here and a first birthday celebration for Grandson Nathan so I'm only just getting around to catching up on blogs.
