I wake to find the morning gray and wet with the mist of light rain and fog.

Gonna be a cozy and indoor Easter Sunday, which is OK with me ... I'm babysitting a wounded kitten that showed up on my porch a few days ago and will be keeping a close eye on her until tomorrow, when we take a trip to the vet to get her looked after by a pro.

Today is our day to celebrate and remember that we, also, are being looked after by a Pro.

My goodness, it's such a wonderful life ... I'm so grateful for it all ... sad and terrible, sweet and glorious as it is.

Wishing all our Hostesses and our Honorable Mr. Mayor and all the Finest a most special and fine Easter Sunday.

The Foot of the Cross

by: Marcia Krugh Leaser, Source Unknown

Fearing the battle was over
And I'd already lost the war,
I was tired of trying and failing.
I just couldn't fight anymore.

So, dragging my battle-scarred body,
I crawled to the foot of the cross.
And I sobbed. 'Oh please, Father forgive me.
But I tried...I tried.. and still lost.'

Then the air grew silent around me.
I heard his voice just as clear as the dawn:
'Oh, My child, though you are tired and weary,
You can't stop, you have to go on.'

At the foot of the Cross , where I met Him,
At the foot of the Cross, where He died,
I felt love, as I knelt in His presence.
I felt hope, as I looked in His eyes.

Then He gathered me lovingly to Him,
As around us God's light clearly shone.
And together we walked though my lifetime
To heal every wound I had known.

I found bits of my dreams, long forgotten,
And pieces of my life on the floor.
But I watched as He tenderly blessed them,
And my life was worth living once more.

I knew then why I had been losing.
I knew why I had not grown.
At the foot of the Cross came the answer:
I'd been fighting the battle alone.

At the foot of the Cross, where I met Him,
At the foot of the Cross, where He died,
Then I knew I could face any challenge
Together--just my Lord and I.

Beer "does" work on the snails and slugs! (Hey, it ought to be good for something!)

I used to have them in my flower beds and someone told me they are attracted to beer. My flowerbeds are slug-free - the flowers are a little wobbly though. :)

I just know this is your sketch. Isn't it? I love it. Hope you're having a wonderful day.

Oops - trying again. :)

He is Risen
He is Risen, Indeed!

May each of you dear FReepers have a Blessed Easter!

We praise you, Lord.
Thank you Jesus for your
mercy and steadfast love;
dying for us so that we might
have eternal life. We are grateful!

And I cannot let the day go by without remembering Cob1 (Texas Cowboy.) I think of his kindness and goodness often. He is in God’s arms now...

[Texagirl4W]

A fine and Happy Easter for you as well. You have the most beautiful graphics.

A Blessed Easter to everyone here...
