Cover to Cover: we too may live a new life



There have been many times along this journey when I haven't known what to say or how to express it. Sometimes the passages have been too complex and sometimes there have been too many choices.

But this week...I am without words.

I feel like nothing I say could in any way express the feelings I have had as I read through these scriptures.

The overwhelming sorrow and despair at His crucifixition...the profound joy at His resurrection.

So, I'll leave you with this: a verse and a song...

"but the angel said, “Don’t be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified.
He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead!"
Mark 16:6





Join us at Bev's for other recaps from the week.

Karen, I know just what you mean. Words are so inadequate. I am filled with gratitude to be on this journey which is far bigger than cover to cover with you! Love, Annette

Love you,

I feel the same way Karen. I could hardly find words to express what I read and may it sink deep in all of us. It certainly has in you! And may you hear Him calling your name this night.

Ditto! I kept trying to put down in words and then stopped and started again.
