Happy Easter world.
Happy... well, are you? You should be.
For everything you have.
Oh sure, you may not have everything you WANT... or think you DESERVE...
Truth is, deserve's got nothing to do with it.
You know one of the best things you have, that you DON'T deserve... but it's free for the asking?
Forgiveness.
Yup... and today is how we celebrate the reason why we have it.
God (after offering up his only begotten son to save us from our sin) raised Jesus back up from the dead... redeeming him, and by extension... all of us who believe, and accept that undeserved gift of forgiveness & redemption.
So be happy... with everything you have... whatever that is... be it a little, or a lot, because it's probably more than somebody else... especially if that somebody else is some rich heathen non-believer.
Oh, and it's also Brandy's (who was born on an Easter Sunday) 9th birthday. So wish her a Happy Birthday. Such a good girl... and I'm happy my beautiful wife (thanks babe, love you) gave her to me.
