"for it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of god." {ephesians 2.8}
those words were alive in my heart today.
don't get me wrong, i love playing up the whole easter bunny thing. in fact, easter baskets are one of my favorite things because they contain strictly sugar. {did i mention i got 3 easter baskets this year? spoiled much? more like i'm going to gain 20 lbs in the next week}. anyways, i love easter for the candy, the easter bunny, and of course the eggs. however, i really love easter because it's the story of why i'm alive and the story of why i have hope. there's no other day that brings me so much joy.
hope you had a joyous and lovely easter spent with the ones you cherish the most.
