He is Risen Indeed!
Happy Resurrection Sunday! We rejoice today in our Resurrected Lord and His victory over sin, death and the devil. We thank Him for being the Man of Sorrows who took our damnation from the hand of God and drank it completely to purchase our salvation.
God blessed us with a good morning. Our SS attendance was down, but our Sunday AM was pretty good. We had a visitor for whom we have often prayed. It was great to have them in church this morning with us.
I teasingly said to Katie this week, "I think I'll preach on the resurrection." She thought that would be a pretty original message for Easter Sunday. The actual text I preached from was Acts 13 as I preached Paul's message which was originally preached in the synagogue. The heart of the Gospel AND the great proof of the Messiah's identity, is that Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
We enjoyed our time in God's Word this morning. We also enjoyed a fellowship meal following the service. This past Monday, was our monthly ladies' meeting. It went very well with a visitor joing that meeting as well. Thank you for praying for our family and ministry. May God bless your time with your church and your family on this special day.
