Easter 2013

the boys! nothing like a daddy and son!
What a day. I am trying to finish up sewing a jacket and have hit a roadblock, and so I am digressing to blog until I can skype my mom and get her to help me!

This was our first Easter in Pennsylvania and at Faith Church, and we couldn't have asked for a better day! We were in a place that was full of people hearing the gospel of Jesus, those who know Him and don't, worshiping Him and His resurrection and conquering of the grave, and we were able to have lunch with some very special people afterwards. After lunch, we came home, napped, played, and just spent time as a family.
Chip gets one gift on Easter to
represent the gift of eternal
life. This year it was "Smash"
the dinosaur, and a HUGE hit!!!

Easter as a whole is something that we should remember each day of our life! It is a gift, just as much as Christmas! Easter is what sets us apart! We don't just worship a god (little 'g') but we worship the God who conquered death! He punched death in the face, snatched the keys to hell from Satan, and made it so we, too, could experience eternal life with Him! We should not only celebrate Easter in the spring, but in the winter, fall, and summer, too! Each day of our life should be celebration of the resurrection of Jesus from the dead! He conquered death and the grave so that the end of our life wouldn't be succumbed to just death and a grave, but more than that - eternal life with Him in Heaven!
Mommy and son - pure love!

Celebrate that with me! Enjoy for a moment, the reality of if we believe with our hearts that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, ask Him to be the Lord of our life, and live each day in the belief of those things, our life doesn't stop at death and the grave, but we will eternally live with Him in Heaven!

Today is Easter, as is tomorrow, and the next day! Remember that!!!



Happy Easter from the Sharp Family in Pennsylvania!!!
