Happy Resurrection Day (a day later!)


Hello All,


What a beautiful day here in North Carolina to celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior. Early this morning I was awakened in order to prepare myself for the day. Spending time in prayer and the Word and reading of how Jesus conquered death and sin for us all in the book of Luke excited me once again!!!


How humbled I am to have a Savior that cares for me that much to be willing to die for me. And not only that, but to give me a new life, a new heart, and to cleanse me of all unrighteousness. I thank Him for His glory within me. His Spirit is in me and I am a new creature. I am at awe at His goodness and graciousness that He has showed me especially these past few months. I have been trully seeking Him (as life experiences have caused me to be desperate!) and listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit as I teach and train my children and myself. They are teaching me to be patient, gentle, and kind as I work and walk along side them and as the Holy Spirit guides and directs me. I am eternally grateful that I have the Spirit as a comforter, a friend, and a close companion, who is with me 24/7 during these difficult times with Phil being gone, and three children to raise in a dark and depraved world.


I plan to continue to celebrate His resurrecting power within me each day, and thank Him for the gift of the Holy Spirit and for the gift of salvation. He broke every curse that the enemy has on my life and my families life and for every man, woman, and child here on Earth. What great news for all to hear and to accept... Thank you Jesus. You are Real, you are True, and you are the only way to God!!!!


For His glory,
Mary Kay


Romans 6:4-6
"Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin."
