He is Risen

1 Corinthians 15:55-57
'O DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY? O DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR STING? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law; but thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.'

I enjoyed spending all of today celebrating the truth of these verses. What a wonderful morning that began celebrating the resurrection of our Savior! It was so moving hearing the church join in song, especially in closing by singing Jared Anderson's "Great I Am". Our afternoon was treasured as a family celebrating at home. As I reflect on what my Savior did for me, I realize that it was His victory over death that allows me to enjoy these precious days with my family without fear of what tomorrow holds. Christ won the final victory, the victory over death.
