Remembering What Easter is all about.

THE REAL REASON WE CELEBRATE EASTER:
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." ~ Matthew 5:3-10

lAST NIGHT I WENT TO CHURCH SERVICE AT MARK'S HOUSE AND IT WAS VERY UPLIFTING. I AM SO THANKFUL THAT I HAVE FINALLY FOUND A PLACE THAT I CAN CALL HOME! FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT SOMETIMES STUMBLE UPON MY BLOG IF YOU DON'T CURRENTLY BELONG TO A CHURCH AND SOMETIMES WISH YOU DID OR FEEL LIKE THAT SPIRITUAL PART OF YOUR LIFE IS MISSING, CROSSBRIDGE COMMUNITY CHURCH JUST MAY BE THE PLACE FOR YOU. I HAVE ONLY BEEN ATTENDING FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW, BUT IT FEELS LIKE I REALLY BELONG THERE AND I AM SO GLAD THAT I FOUND IT.
Today I am so thankful for :
the gift of my Lord, Jesus Christ, washing away my sins.

"My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. "Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. "Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them." ~ John 17:20-26

I HOPE ALL OF YOU HAVE A GREAT EASTER!
