Jesus Paid It All

It’s that time of year again, when we celebrate the rising of our Savior. I just finished Heaven is for Real. Whether or not you believe this child really went to Heaven and spent time with Jesus, you have to be in awe of the kindness and love he so innocently explains. If you haven’t read the book, give a shot. It’s a beautiful depiction of who our Jesus is. He is love. He is kind.

Easter is exciting, but I think Good Friday is the most sobering holiday. Passover.  Jesus was our Lamb slain to pay the debt of sinners, like me. My sin, MY SIN, alone would have held Him there on the cross bleeding in my place. Jesus paid it all.

This Easter comes with blessings, as they always have. God first sent His Son, but he hasn’t stopped blessing me since. Mike and I are so excited to wake up Easter morning in our brand new home. Only by God’s grace and unending blessings can we do that. Why He continues to lavish me with love, I will never understand. I will only try to show that love to the world.

We are also blessed to be spending Easter with a whole slew of family. We are lucky to be surrounded by people who love us, and I hope you are able to celebrate the day Jesus ROSE FROM THE GRAVE with those you love as well. We will 100% miss our family in Louisiana and the crawfish they will probably be eating. We love and miss you.
