Easter- Where lies the miracle?

Well, Happy Easter to you all. . .This sweet morning that holds so much meaning has oft been taken and ripped apart to fit men's theories as they try to explain away the love and sacrifice of our Savior to be a metaphor or parable that never really took place. Now normally I would not be blogging Easter morning but I'm not feeling well this Easter so here I find myself, and in that I read a couple of articles I probably wouldn't have otherwise and they were so good that I thought I'd share them with you. So if you have the time I hope you stop by and get as much good out of them as I did this morning.

My mother is so sweet and always makes us lovely Easter cards. This year she put a poem of sorts in that I'd like to share with you all as well

JESUS

The life of the One

Who is fully God and fully Man.

He who is the Bread of Life

Began His ministry hungry

He who is the Water of Life

Ended His ministry thirsting

Christ hungered as a man

yet He fed the hungry as God

He was weary yet He is our rest

He paid tribute yet He is our King

He was called a devil

yet He cast out demons.

He prayed, yet He hears prayer

He wept, yet He dries our tears

He was sold for 30 pieces of silver

yet He redeems sinners

He was led as a lamb to slaughter

yet He is the Good Shepherd

He gave His life

yet by dying He destroyed death.

The miracle lies in Christ's life and death being fully man and fully GOD! And it did happen in every literal sense and is NOT just a story for a child to learn a lesson from!

Well God bless and have a wonderful Easter!
