Sometimes I find the Easter story too familar to understand it at the appropriate depth
I can't help but feel the same way. I've heard the Easter story for as long as I can remember. It's such an awesome story of grace, redemption, and love, but I don't think I fully understand what that really means. I'm so thankful that I have grown up in a Christian home and have experienced the love of Christ from an early age, but sometimes I feel that it's the new Christians that truly understand and appreciate the Easter story and what all it means.
This Easter weekend, I have tried to really focus on what this weekend is all about. I saw another friend's facebook status yesterday with the chorus of a song that I hadn't heard in a while. After I listened to it, I decided it is one of my new favorite songs. It tells the story of Christ's love for us, what he did on the cross, and how he made a way for us to be in a complete loving relationship with him. It's such an awesome song, and it tells the depth of what this weekend is about.
Brenda, the casserole makes at least six servings, depending on how much your handsome man eats :) I saw this post earlier and absolutely loved it. "Old school" Hillsong/Darlene Zschech songs have made such an impact on my life and will always have such a special place in my heart. Thank you for sharing this!
