Yes to life!

Life!

It is all around us, isn't it?

In the flower buds.  In the trees.

The grass.  Red and yellow tulips, and more.

To life!

Death has no dominion over life.

Doubt is defeated.  So is despair. 

As Jews celebrate Passover and their deliverance from the tyranny of Egypt's corrupt, a land flowing with milk and honey welcomes the pilgrim wanderers into Palestine.

To life!

As Christians mark a week filled with so many feelings - denial, bargaining, betrayal of Jesus, and more -
Easter's spring is not far off, is it?

Resurrection triumphs smallness, sin, selfishness.

Jesus the Christ rises from the ashes of his lifeless body on the tree of the cross.

On the wood of the cross hung our healing, and, our salvation.

To life!

To live it fully and forever.

Life!

I love it!
