today.


 So it comes to today. Truthfully, it happens each morning, but sometimes it is just different. Insight or wisdom concerning a heart issue is brought to light. A truth starts to dispell a lie. We are overcomers. This day has too easily become one to hunt for an array of colored eggs while hoping that a basket full of goodies awaits us on the kitchen counter. I was reminded, as I am every year, of how wonderful it really was to have a perfect son, fully flesh, yet fully God, die on a cross to bear the weight of sin that we could have never been saved from otherwise. We celebrate this specific Sunday because we are alive in Christ and no longer dead in our sins; because honestly, dead is all we are without Him.
  Great things happened today. People will probably remember this Sunday for Watson winning his first Masters. Some might remember the excessive amount of brunch that was consumed and a remnant of belly ache from the extra piece of cake. I am so thankful to have a family that I was able to spend time with; those who care about what the Lord is putting on my heart and the path in which He is leading me. I am thankful that I can look back on this resurrection day and have tangible proof that the enemy has been defeated and the Lord has the victory. I am blessed. Though we may walk through difficult things in this life, if we choose to hold onto the Father, we are guaranteed victory.
