Psalm 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

This verse is one that challenged me- peace to them that love thy law and nothing shall offend them. This week Caleb was diagnosed with Leukemia.  So, we are now in the greatest trial of our lives.  Today while reading the largest chapter of the Bible I was knocked over with this verse 65.  I asked, " Lord, may I continue to love thy law and believe that you are a great, merciful and loving God.   May I continue to live out the life of a follower of Christ."  I'v struggled the last few days.  To be honest, I'm not sure that I have always truly taken hold of the phrase "nothing can offend them."  My faith has been stretched.  But, the outpouring of fellow believers and their promises of prayer have been powerful.  Just the rush of each one of the praying friends to our time of need has been excellent.

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ

This Sunday is our Resurrection Celebration.  That is what it should be.  Easter Sunday at Trinity Baptist Church is a time of worship.  We will first, meet at 6:30 am to remember just how great the sacrifice that was made when our Lord Jesus went to the cross and gave up his life.  Then at 11:00 we will worship and celebrate all of Christ's work.  We will end with remembering the Resurrection.  "If Christ be not raised' our faith is void. "If Christ be not raised" where is our Savior?  He is Risen brother and sisters!  Let's celebrate on Sunday!
