This past Sunday I believe we discovered a true attitude of thanks as we lifted our voices to God and said, “Thank You!” That expression of honor is some of the best music our Father God can hear. To hear our thanks for all He is and all He has done is a sweet time for each of us. These words filled the glass of worship to overflowing this past Sunday. That glass is filled every week with praises from people who love and honor God with their voices and their commitment. This past Sunday was special to me in that, we seemed to have such an attitude of gratitude.
I sense many times in my life I might say, “Thank you, God”, but lack in the truth of my attitude about really thanking Him. As our pastor shared about the Essentials of Easter and the details of the grave, it brought to mind just how much we need to be grateful for what He did for us. He died, was buried and rose again. Eternity was changed forever…..Thank you, Jesus!
As we approach this Sunday and the Passover, may our hearts be stirred even more as we continue to build on each essential of what Easter is all about for each us. May the crucifixion, the grave and the resurrection stir us, and change our attitudes from one of platitude (the quality or state of being flat, dull, or trite) to one of gratitude (the quality or feeling of being grateful or thankful). It will make this Easter one that will change how we live our lives. It will change our perspective and put Christ at the CENTER of it all. That is the least we can do…
The Pilgrimage continues...
