Sunday Reminder
Happy Resurrection Sunday to you all! I know this is late, but somehow, over the last few days it completely slipped my mind to get this post ready and scheduled. We did get to see my father-in-law for the first time in over a year so that made for an exciting last few days. It… Continue reading Sunday Reminder
A Lenten Triodion Resurrection Reminder
This Sunday, the hymn that I chose to share with you as our Resurrection Reminder actually comes from the Lenten Triodion. This hymn is so vivid. Make us worthy to receive Thy light, for we sing praises to thy glorious Resurrection! Blessed Sunday to you all!
Glory to Thy Resurrection
This photo was taken one week ago as I visited my daughter in Maryland. We visited the battlefield of Manassas on a clear, bright day. This tree was alone, tall, and strong against the brilliant blue sky. It struck me with awe and I stood for a long time taking it in. Scenes like this… Continue reading Glory to Thy Resurrection

Come, O People, Christ is Risen!
Each Sunday I spend time relishing in this beautiful fact...Christ is Risen! He has trampled down death, He has freed us from our suffering, He has delivered the world from the enemy's deceit. Some days I cling to these hymns to enlighten my world from the darkness that surrounds. To lift me up out of… Continue reading Come, O People, Christ is Risen!
