Therefore, dear brothers, by the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your spiritual worship."

Again utilizing my iPhone so the message will be brief! Tonight I pray that you all enjoyed an Easter Sunday that caused you to rejoice in the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! I worshipped at a church I had never been in, with people I had never seen (except for Robert and our granddaughter, Azra), and I loved the fact that we were all together for the common purpose of lifting up the name of Jesus! I loved hearing Azra sing songs of worship and tell me the reason for Easter. It truly was a wonderful service for me.

At times like this I feel as if I have sacrificed so little for my King...please Lord, accept my humble thanks for this day of blessing, and please show me every way that I can express my thankfulness for your mercies by daily sacrificing my body to Your purpose. It is in the name of the risen Jesus that I pray - Amen.
