I have news. Do I whisper it in adoration? Or do I shout it in exultation? Here it is: Jesus lives! JESUS LIVES! He’s been set free. Jesus— free from the grip of the grave. Free even from the grasp of my arms! He was mine for a season, but he was on earth for a reason. The reason? The cross and the grave! Death and Resurrection.
As my son, he died, he succumbed to death; as God’s son, he rose to life.
As my son he came as a baby; as God’s son, he will return as King.
As my son he rode a common donkey; as God’s son, he will ride a white stallion.
As my son, he fed five thousand; as God’s son he is bread for all.
As my son, he drank water from a well; as God’s son, he is Living Water.
As my son, he was under the law; as God’s son, he was fulfillment of the law.
As my son, he celebrated the Passover; as God’s son, he became the Passover.
Jesus, my son, is no longer bound by a body, He has been set free, and as he is so can I be! Jesus, my Lord, and my God. I am highly favored and honored to be your servant. May it be to me as thou wilt.

Oneta’s note: And I rejoice that “as he is, so we shall be” – Alive, alive, alive forevermore.

A blessed Resurrection Sunday, Oneta!
Thanks so much for joining me on this blessed Day.
Happy Easter, Oneta!
Hope your time was well spent in rest for soul, mind, and body. We visited a son and his family about 100 miles from here. Well you will know, Ada. Ada is a place of significant history. They live in the Barrington (or Barringer) house build in 1907. I might post some pics and a bit of history.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow!
Thank you Lord!
Thank you. We rejoice in the eternal life offered to us Because He Lives.
Fantastic post. Amen! Our Savior is Risen!
Thank you Marques. It has been a blessed day for us. Probably for you also as you took time to think on the marvel of the resurrected Christ!
Yes, it was a truly wonderful day, spent with family as we worshiped and praised our Risen King together.
We serve an amazing God.
Awesome Post! Happy Resurrections Sunday! Blessings and Peace.
Hey, I don’t know what name to call you. Do you go by the initials – c.f.? Well, thanks anyway for leaving me this happy blessing. They are returned to you in abundant measure.
Happy Easter, Oneta!
Thank you, Frank. I hope your Easter turned out even greater than anticipated. Mine did.
2021 THE TOMB IS EMPTY. BODY HAS GONE! He is WITH US IN us AND is ALIVE FOR ETERNITY. HE IS RISEN INDEED! Blessings and Easter HOPE and thanks to you all.
