Christ is Risen Indeed!!

 After the Sabbath, as the first light of the new week dawned, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to keep vigil at the tomb. Suddenly the earth reeled and rocked under their feet as God's angel came down from heaven, came right up to where they were standing. He rolled back the stone and then sat on it. Shafts of lightning blazed from him. His garments shimmered snow-white. The guards at the tomb were scared to death. They were so frightened, they couldn't move.

The angel spoke to the women: "There is nothing to fear here. I know you're looking for Jesus, the One they nailed to the cross. He is not here. He was raised, just as he said. Come and look at the place where he was placed.

Now, get on your way quickly and tell his disciples, 'He is risen from the dead. He is going on ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there.' That's the message."

The women, deep in wonder and full of joy, lost no time in leaving the tomb. They ran to tell the disciples. Then Jesus met them, stopping them in their tracks. "Good morning!" he said. They fell to their knees, embraced his feet, and worshiped him. Jesus said, "You're holding on to me for dear life! Don't be frightened like that. Go tell my brothers that they are to go to Galilee, andthat I'll meet them there."

Matthew 28: 1-10 (The Message)

Holy Week Song #1... (And Tuesday Tunes)

Recently been playing around with Tumblr.  Not crazy about it, but it is cool that you can upload songs, audio, video, etc.

Anyway, you will have to go here: http://parisenbleu.tumblr.com/post/4756902167/holy-week-where-the-nails-were-all-rights-go for today's blog post and song!  Yes, it is me singing...long, long ago...  Still love this song, though.

Tuesday Tunes: Crazy Tonight!!

It's Monday....

Here we are, at the start of a new week.  A busy one, too.  Lots going on.

Tonight I am leading worship at my Bible study.  I am excited since I am doing a little something different.  A mini Good Friday service, if you will.  Should be interesting...  First time doing something like this, but I believe it is totally from God.  I will continue to pray all day so that God will be at the center no matter what.

Also, starting to tutor on Wednesday.  My Mom and I are team tutoring.  It should be good.

Thursday night, my sister and I are going to see Frank Warren the PostSecret guy.  I am so excited.  He is having a book signing afterwards that I think we will try and stay for.  I mean, it's Frank.  I feel like I know him, even though I don't...not really anyway.  All of the proceeds go to the Suicide Prevention Line, so it is for a good cause.  Anyway, check the website (www.postsecret.com) if you have no idea what I am talking about.

Friday I am off to horseback riding camp for the night.  We are back Saturday night at 9 or so.  I am excited because I don't get to ride horses very often.  Jonathan is allergic to them, which means I will have to throw all my clothes in the wash as SOON as I get home.  Then head straight into the shower.  Do not pass go.  Do not collect $200...

Anyway, I am very excited about this week, but I am also getting tired just thinking about it!!  Ah well, God will give me strength!  Here is one of the awesome songs I am doing tonight!!  Enjoy!
