He lives Indeed!!!

Friday, the world was dark. It had lost hope and faith. It was covered in darkness. But on Sunday, oh glorious day, he ROSE AGAIN! He conquered death and He did it for YOU and for ME. Sin has lost it's power, death has lost it's sting! My Savior lives! HE LIVES INDEED!!!!!!!!


"In Christ Alone"
In Christ Alone, my hope is found. He is my light, my strength, my song.
This cornerstone, this solid ground, firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace!
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease.
My comforter, My all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand!

In Christ Alone, who took on flesh
fullness of God in helpless babe.
This gift of love & righteousness,
scorned by the ones He came to save.
Til on that cross as Jesus died,
the wrath of God was satisfied,
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live!

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!!
And as He stands in victory
sin's curse has lost it's grip on me!
For I am His, and He is mine
bought with the precious blood of Christ!!

No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!


We spent a wonderful weekend in Austin with our brother and sister in law. Our dad, step mom, and younger brother flew in to spend the weekend with us. It was so nice to spend a weekend together and to celebrate the resurrection together today. We went to church at my brothers church, The Austin Stone, and it was a wonderful sermon. I pray that you and your family were able to spend the day worshipping together and remembering the true meaning of Easter!
