A neat event happened last night at our church that us fellows was not able to attend. It was a ladies banquet in honor of our heroes at home- that is, the wives of our Sapper men serving in Afghanistan. The speaker was our U.S. Senator's wife, Mrs. Wicker. The entrance fee was to bring a snack to be packed up and sent to our Sapper men. The surprise highlight was a welcome video from some of our soldiers serving. Dawn was bubbly about it last night and Facebook (yes, I just took the plunge) is lit up about it as well. Thank you ladies for working so hard to honor our ladies and our Lord on such a great night!
I am highly anticipating Sunday when we will celebrate the Lord's Supper together and talk about the darkness of the cross and the sealed tomb. However, keep in mind...Sunday is coming. Resurrection is very near. When I read I Corinthians 15 this morning, it makes me want to rush to the empty tomb. I Corinthians 15:54-57 -When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” 55 “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” 56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Live the victory today! Share the victory today! Enjoy the victory today! If you are in Christ, you are dead in your sin. You are alive in Christ. Let's live like it today....and have a blessed one!
