This Glorious Morn

Good Morning!
Such a wonderful day, the promise of sunshine
and full of hope for a bright new beginning.
We shall be off to church later
(after opening the chocolate of course)
and then a lovely family afternoon at
my Mam's.
I've baked and whisked
(though still have the custard to do)
and we have a nice piece of lamb to go
in the oven ready for dinner
(or lunch if your not from the north LOL)
MMmmm Lamb, roasties and mint sauce,
it's got to be one of my favourite meals.

But of course there is a message in all this,
the hope we have is not just in the weather
or in our own determination to start afresh,
but there is a greater, better, and
more stead fast hope,
The sure and certain hope that the
resurrection brings.

Matthew 28v5-6
The angel said to the women,
"Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus,
who was crucified.
He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.
Come and see the place where he lay".

Happy Easter, Happy Spring,
and most of all
Happy Resurrection Sunday!
He is Risen indeed, Allelujah!!!

With love and blessings in Christ
