The Color of Joy from Within



Friday night was spent in remembrance of the sacrifice Jesus made for our sins.  He paid the required price instead of us.  One Man for all people.  And we remembered in reverence as we sat down to a lamb dinner.

Saturday was a quiet day, a day of waiting.  And in the mountains, it snowed.  All day long the snow fell quietly; heaven's tears watering the earth for new life to come.

Some children from the neighborhood came over to deliver a note.  And they stayed.  They began painting joy on the windows.  Joy that came from within, came from a child's desire to celebrate Him.





And my heart smiled.  Joy came from within on a chilly day and warmed us all!

The joy of Jesus warms because it is rooted in the greatest love.  Love that comes from the Father for us.

Today is Sunday.  We will soon gather with church family to sing and worship our risen King.  Then, we will gather in the room with joy painted on the windows.   Today we celebrate!

Celebrate well remembering that He conquered death for you!
Love always,
Angie
