Easter

Peter and I celebrated Easter by attending a special service at church-it is wonderful we serve a risen Savior!
The Easter bunny came and filled our Easter basket with my favorite candy Reese cup bunny.
Then we went to Jane and Jonathan's house and we had a yummy Easter dinner with ham and all the trimmings and I made a pineapple caserole which was a big hit.They invited some friends over that had no place to go which is nice they are so generous. I am blessed to have a nice family that I married into since I am so far from home.  I will call my family later in Scotland.  

Debbie's counseling

I went with Debbie to her counseling appointment to help her deal with her dysfunctional family and the problems that came about after her pimp got her selling herself and taking drugs.  She is doing so much better with the help of God in her life-I am so proud of her.  She has quit the drugs but still has some self-esteem issues.  I am there to support her the best way I know how.  I am glad he is available for Saturday appointments.

Good Friday

Today Lindsay and Peter went to the Good Friday service at their church and she imagined what it was like for Christ to have been beaten and had his hands and feet pierced and hung on a cross and suffered such an injustice when he never did anything wrong but he endured the pain to be the sacrifical passover lamb on our behalf. His blood cleanses us from our sins for he could have called on the angels to come and rescue him but it was his love for sinful people that kept him there by by his stripes we are healed.  While we were yet sinners Christ died for us even though we are undeserving of his mercy it is by his death and resurrection we can go to heaven when we die but unfortunately we still have to live in a fallen world and there are a lot of hurting people who need God in their lives.    

Lindsay's been working out

Lindsay just got home from the gym-she rode the exercise bike, did some weight machines and then did some sit-ups. I got to keep my arms in shape with the weights. I want to look good for Peter.
