Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!

This week, I've read several blogs, newspaper columns and Facebook posts

 reminding us that the true meaning of Easter isn't about rabbits, eggs

 or new clothes. It's all about a Savior who died a humiliating death 

in our place. He hung upon a cross, then was placed in a tomb

 before his resurrection on the third day.

 For those whose Lord is Jesus, it's all about the promise of  eternal life

 and a peace and joy beyond our human understanding.

That's why I chose the dogwood, which is blooming in my yard this Easter,

 as a reminder of this awesome occasion. Legend says the bloom resembles

 the shape of a cross and its center, a crown of thorns. The pinched edges

 resemble the wounds caused by nails and the red tinge, His blood.
