This is my place to share with family and friends. You might find handmade cards, digital scrapbook pages, photos or a little chatter because those are the things I love. My blog is a work in progress, so be patient with me. Most of the time I think I will be talking to myself, but hey, I'm used to that!

Easter week.......

This week is one that I always spend contemplating the amazing gift of salvation given to us because of our Lord Jesus' sacrifice.
The song Amazing Love, words and music by Billy James Foote says it all.
Hear the song on YouTube sung by Lyndsey Wallace

The lyrics:

I’m forgiven because You were forsaken,
I’m accepted, You were condemned.
I am alive and well, Your spirit is within me,
Because You died and rose again.

Amazing love, How can it be
That You, my King, would die for me?
Amazing love, I know it’s true.
It’s my joy to honor You,
In all I do, I honor You.
