On a day when we are exposed to pictures of tombs and bloody scenes of the crucifixion while munching Easter eggs, chocolate bunnies, and jelly beans, many of us may experience a serious diseqaulibrium. What is this day really about?
This picture from my daughter Emmy’s baptism last summer at Piney Lake, CO says it all for me. She was lost and Jesus found her. And I had the honor of baptizing her. She is now more who God made her than ever before. This picture tells the story of us all.
Praise the Lord!,… the God Who lives,… and Who gives Life and renews Life!,… He has rescued us from the pit,…
Job 33:27-30
27 “He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
28 “He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
29 “Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
30 “To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.”
Thank the Lord!,… Praise the Lord!,…
Mark 10:27 ” … Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.’ ”
she radiates!,… that does say it all!,… must have been a very profoundly happy moment for you too!,… God Bless!
She is an amazing young lady.
Easter driving thru SCentral UT, an amazing display of The Creator’s power and majesty. Arid landscapes, deep gorges, water pocket folds…He planned it all. Saw cathedrals and towers, remains of Fremont people and Mormon homesteaders. Missed church in Eagle Vail and egg hunts in Vail village. Oh well but prefer jackrabbits, cactus, jays and junipers.
Sounds beautiful and profound, John. And we missed you.
Love how happy she looks. Awesome capture, and great message. Hope you had a wonderful Easter, my friend!
I did. Full. I hope you did as well.
