Lent Challenge: Holy Week

Kelley got a little off on the 40 day challenge so her posts went into Holy week.   Ann and I added posts that week too, but they were not as long as the first 40 days.  I am just adding all of them here.

One of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so. The Church ...

DAY 40! Because of Him I can do all things! On this Easter day I am so grateful for the great sacrifice that Christ suffered for us, but mostly I am awed by the promise that comes with His resurrection that says that I too will continue living after death. There is no limit to my progress and growth, there is no limit to my learning, there is no limit to my experience, there is no limit to my joy!

Happy Easter everyone!

For Good Friday there are so many videos to share. Christ taking on the sins of the world in the early morning hours at Gethsemane. Christ's being scourged, His condemnation by the people, His conversations with Pilate. His death on the cross, sealing the price of all of the pain and the suffering of the atonement.

I want to share this video. Because I have not been asked to do Christ's role. I am not the Savior of Mankind, but I have been asked to fulfill Peter's role. I have been asked to stand as a witness for Christ. And this Good Friday story has always touched my heart. I understand and empathize with Peter.

Thank you again everyone for going on this Lent challenge with me. I know there is truth, truth that doesn't change.

I know all truth comes from God, no matter how we think we discovered it. I know God gave us His Son, and His Son willingly gave His life so we can all live again and live with our Heavenly Father, if we so choose. Death is not the end, our sins, mistakes, and pain do not define us.

I am so very grateful for this gift, it is why I want to share this message with everyone, so they have the choice too.

Happy Easter! #LentChallenge2014. #40daysoftruth. #becauseofhim
