It's an Eggs-cellent Day!

Red Star Egg

I am hanging out at Angela's house sick. Low grade fever, wicked sore throat that is trying to go into my ears, body aches and a headache too. I'm on the computer so I will stay awake until I can go to the pharmacy to pick up my prescriptions. After all of that misery you may be wondering why I think it is such a good day.

This is a day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it!

Yep some days you just need to get up and believe. Otherwise you will end up wallowing in your misery.

Oh the photo of the egg? It is one I found in the nest box this morning. It is bigger than an early pullet egg but not the jumbo size they will eventually become. Another reason to be happy and do a lil rejoicing ... the eggs are coming on so Yay!

He Is Risen!

The Glorious Easter Exchange
Lord, the condemnation was yours, that the justification might be mine.
The agony was yours, that the victory might be mine.
The pain was yours, and the ease mine.
The stripes were yours, and the healing balm issuing from them mine.
The vinegar and gall were yours, that the honey and sweet might be mine.
The curse was yours, that the blessing might be mine.
The crown of thorns was yours, that the crown of glory might be mine.
The death was yours, the life purchased by it mine.
You paid the price, that I might enjoy the inheritance.

 John Flavel’s (1671)

Wishing everyone Easter blessings!!

P.S. Have to make my Easter post a little early as I do not think I will have internet access until Tuesday.
