Hi everyone!
Though the rain is rolling in, nothing can put a damper on
this day. For this is the day the Lord
has made – let us rejoice and be glad.
The stone has been rolled away and with that hope was given to this
world. This is the time of year to reflect
and leave some things at the graveside so that we can move into all that the
Lord has planned for us.
Sometimes this
isn’t so easy. Sure, there are some people
that walk into our lives and in just 6 months we can barely remember anything
about them and then there are those who come into our lives, touch our lives
and stay with us for a life time. The
important part to both experiences is that both good and bad are in the past
and if we don’t know when to leave the past behind and roll the stone away we
can find ourselves trapped in a grave of the past.
Easter is about resurrection and hope; it’s about new
beginnings and leaving the past at the graveside so that we can come into all
that the Lord has planned. As I have
watched dreams that I thought were buried for good rise up to meet my future;
as I watch new doors opening all around me, I embrace the hope and new life
that this new season is bringing into my life.
Change can be tough and fulfilling our dreams can mean lots of work and perseverance,
but with each step that HE illuminates it makes all the effort worthwhile. HE is pushing me farther in the hope of
bringing me farther than I have ever gone in my life. Knowing that this time is leading me to fulfilling
the most important race of my life makes me so thankful that HE has risen so
that HE could guide me in a time such as this.
Happy Resurrection Day and my prayer is that you too allow
HIM to be a lighthouse in your life and raise you from the dead.
