Easter!

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve written on here! I guess it is that time of year though; deadlines are looming and papers and assignments aren’t getting done! Haha. School is quickly approaching a close and graduation and Europe is quickly approaching! Hardly a day passes without it crossing my mind.. definitely both exciting and intimidating though!


In the midst of everything happening around me, I often forget the special day that is fast approaching: Easter. While it might be commercialized and often overlooked ‘holiday’, as Christians, it is one of the most important events that we need to remember. Because of these three days, the ultimate sacrifice has been paid and our lives redeemed from eternal condemnation. What a glorious moment to remember and NEVER forget. I think I definitely don’t realize the full magnitude of Jesus’ death on the cross sometimes. It is so easy to get caught up with living life that this sacrificial act is taken for granted. I was on my iTunes this past Sunday and this song came on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsGF9xJl9ZY. The first two lines reminded me of how great it is to have God love us as He does. “He overcame the cross and grave” to find my soul – now that is a powerful love that we are graced with!
