A Reason To Celebrate!

I love the Easter season. I enjoy doing the fun stuff like Easter egg hunts with the boys, but most of all I love that it reminds of the greatest sacrifice ever made. I'm so thankful that Jesus paid for my sins on the cross. I'm glad that on the third day he rose again and has an active part in my life today.

My relationship with Jesus began when I was 13 years old. Many seeds had been planted before that point, but it was then that I realized that I needed forgiveness for my sins. I'm so thankful for that decision, it is the most important one I have ever made.
On Easter Sunday Anson accepted that forgiveness for his own life. All the things we were hearing at the different Church services we attended and the things we were talking about at home really made him think and come to the conclusion that it was something he needed to do. My heart is filled with joy and praise to God over that decision he made.
