How He loves us so!

It's Easter weekend and I can't help but feel

totally and completely overwhelmed by God's

love. It's beautiful. I'm not sure where you

stand in your beliefs, but if you have an

incling that you may not agree with what

i'm about to stay, I ask that you read anyways...

I believe in Jesus. I believe He came to this earth,

died on a cross for my sins, and rose three days

later! I believe that I am loved. While I may not

understand a love so great, I am so very grateful

{to say the least} for it. We'd be hard pressed to

find a love like Christ's. We won't find it in friends,

or family, or signicant others. In fact the love we

do find in our loved ones are but tiny echoes of

God's everlasting love. There is something

beautiful and overwhelming about God's love. It's

like a warm blanket wrapping itself around me on

days when I just don't feel like enough, or the

nudging elbow that says, "don't worry i'll be right

next to you." It's anything and everything I have

need of. It's unashamed, undignified, unrelenting

and never-ending love. I am so grateful to have God

in my life. This weekend I remember the sacrifices

that that love was willing to make, for me, and for

you. I hope you have a lovely weekend; and

remember how much you're loved.

x's and o's,
