"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." (James 1:27)

Resurrection Day

I am so thankful for my risen Savior. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ, I would have no hope of eternal life. I hope each of you has a blessed Easter and always remember that Jesus loves you. In fact, He loves you so much that He died for you. He took our sins away when He gave his life on the cross. And three glorious days later, He arose from the grave!

A friend of our's called just a while ago and asked if I had ever heard of the song, "Always" by Building 429. He described to me what it was about and thought of us. I just had to search for it and found it on you tube. Whatever storm you are going through, remember that Jesus never changes, He is sovereign and is always with you.

Don't forget to scroll down to the bottom to pause the music playing.

Romans 8:15-17
"For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption. And by him we cry 'Abba, Father.' The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory."
