Not sure where we're headed for Easter dinner. Hope somewhere super yummy! Wishing you a week full of reflection for what our Savior did for us...the reason we celebrate Easter.
"But this is how God will rescue the whole world. My life will break and God's broken world will mend. My heart will tear apart--and your hearts will heal. Just as the passover lamb died, so now I will die instead of you. My blood will wash away all of your sins, and you'll be clean on the inside--in your hearts."-- Jesus
