Blog Header - April 7, 2012

Happy Easter!

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday—the day we celebrate our Lord’s resurrection from the dead and ultimate triumph over evil. I’m looking forward to church tomorrow. What a great God we worship!

The above blog header doesn’t have a whole lot to do with Easter. It’s a picture I took during heavy cloud cover up on the mountains. I love the picture. But this header photo is being replaced by the new Easter header, which will become a blog post when I replace it. But for now, I am posting a photo of spring apple blossoms, signifying the life giving power of the resurrected Christ.

Let the whole world rejoice! He is risen - indeed, he is risen!
