Easter week has risen!
This week in my life is a perfect example of an amazing Easter week!
It started off strong with high hopes because Carie and I received some amazing financial news, and then some more, and then some more. I felt a bit like Warren Buffet, or at least the China Buffet. Things were good. Then the bottom dropped out. Not so much in finances or even amongst people, but about rain. For days it has poured and poured and poured here in the Northeast. Flooding is occurring and I thought I’d have to take a boat the 200 or so feet it takes me to get to work. Facebook statuses complain of flooding basements, wet dogs, and dark days creating dark moods.
In the midst of the darkness, our Fellowship lead team gathered together in a room on Wednesday evening and talked about what we were going to do this Sunday. Most of us talked of our service, some of us talked about fishing. We laughed, we thought, we even sang a bit. And we wondered. Wondered if our Easter plans that are as different as they can be from every other Easter service we’ve done is going to work. Just like His disciples during those dark nights we wondered and we questioned (not His presence, but our ideas).
But Sunday is a-coming and with it comes sunny days, beautiful weather, uplifted moods, and a time for followers everywhere to come together and pronounce that Jesus is indeed risen, and he lives forevermore!
I’ll be celebrating at Fellowship! Where will you be?
