Happy Easter!
The great gift of Easter is hope - Christian hope which makes us have that confidence in God, in his ultimate triumph, and in his goodness and love, which nothing can shake.
Knowing how much I love flowers. My neighbor brought me a bouquet of flowers from her church's Easter Celebration {2009}.
She told me that these flowers were used to cover a lifesize cross. I was delighted that the bouquet contained one of my favorite flowers, the very fragrant hyacinth.
Two days later as I labored in the hospital with my third child,
the nurse and I talked about our love of gardening.
The nurse tells me a familiar story....her church gathered flowers to cover a lifesize cross. The flowers she donated were lovingly grown and given life by her very hand...purple hyancinths.
A few hours later and before my Dr.'s arrival, those same set of hands would personally deliver my precious son, Miles.
Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life
