Easter Sunday - Amazing Love











What a wonderful Easter it turned out to be. The weather didn't cooperate but oh well. We had planned to go to Dallas Blooms but it was cold and wet so we had an indoor egg hunt after church. I made Easter baskets for Caleb and Colten. I baked Martha Stewart's orange glazed ham. I baked an Easter cake that came out kinda cute and chocolate covered strawberries. I think everyone enjoyed it. They ate it anyway if they didn't.

With all the eggs, bunnies, and good food we tend to overlook why we're celebrating so I made it a point to reflect on what this day really means. How amazing it is. I think the song "You Are My King (Amazing Love)" by The Newsboys says it all. I love this song.
I’m forgiven because You were forsaken
I’m accepted, You were condemned
I’m alive and well, Your Spirit lives within me
Because You died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
Amazing love, I know it’s true
It’s my joy to honor You
In all I do, I honor You
You are my King
You are my King Jesus,
You are my King
You are my King
