Happy Resurrection Day

One thing I will remember most this Easter is Good Friday, April 3rd. This was a very important day for me because it was the first time Zeke told me he wanted to ask Jesus into his heart. He has heard the Gospel story many times but never has he wanted to ask Jesus to save him until the evening of Good Friday while sitting at the dinner table. He wanted to be saved, he wanted Jesus to come into his heart so that he could go to Heaven and his sins forgiven. He asked me how do I pray? How do I ask him? So I showed him how and we prayed together asking Jesus to save him. It was an amazing moment of faith and of God's grace. There is nothing more humbling to me than to see a three year old seeking Christ. The Gospel message is simple...


"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life." Romans 5:8-10

My prayer is that Zeke will be remember this day and continue to seek Christ as he grows old.

We had a really nice Easter celebration with Robert's side of the family and we got some pictures to share too! This was the first time I was able to dress Zeke and Jonathan in matching outfits. Zeke and Jonathan loved looking at Aunt Barb's bunny and they got to go swimming in their heated pool!
