That is where we are...between Crosses and Crowns! Living in the times of God's choosing, between the time that Jesus took on all our sin at the Cross (and won, by the way!!) and the Crowns that we will lay at His feet when in heaven......praying that you all have entered that relationship with Him to enable you to lay down those crosses!
Easter is coming soon, Good Friday is 3 weeks from today!!! Wow!
I love this time of year...spring blooming, the old dead look of winter being taken over by the lovely sights of new birth in the greening of the grass, blooming of early flowers and blossoming of the trees... such a wonderful sight!
Funny though, I am going to set an Easter table for family this year with a rather color-less (all white linens and centerpieces) table scape...hmmmmmm, am I missing something here???? NOPE!!
I do not want anything to overshadow what the Lord has done for us with His sacrifice....eternal life with my Savior and there is nothing that is more beautiful than the gift that His rising again has given to all who accept it!
I am not going to be void of love, laughter, prayer, or joy......just the clutter of lots of things that may be the focus and not the reason for the day.
As a sneak peek to our table for this Holy Day.... a picture of 3 crosses that I have painted to fit our celebration table.
(forgive the background....we have boxes upon boxes of flooring in the room)
