Today on my way to pick up a wooden cross from the church, I kept thinking of Jesus. I was going to decorate the cross for Easter.

It was such a privilege to decorate this cross for Him and us. I prayed and thanked Jesus for my lifetime of blessings and also asked him for forgiveness of my shortcomings. My heart has been calm through all the craziness we have been experiencing. I thanked Him for that. I know He is in my heart and because of that I can handle anything.

As I unloaded the 6-foot cross from my truck (myself I might add), I couldn’t imagine Jesus carrying a much larger cross and suffering the way He did for us. The Love He has for us. So great! As I was carrying it to the house and sat the cross down in the grass, I decided to take a few pictures with my camera. The sky was completely cloud-covered. As I sat myself on the grass and at the very moment I went to take the picture the sun broke through. I know He is with me (us). It was such a moment that I had to share.
