A Different Kind of Easter

All day I've been trying to figure out what was different about today. Was something wrong? Is this good or not so good? Easter is usually a very busy time. Of course with the changes in my life, things are different. (I actually was able to play the piano for almost an hour this past week. Did not realize how much I missed it after not playing for the better part of four years.)

Church was wonderfully simple. I'm sure many people were involved behind the scenes, but it didn't look complicated. Churches sometimes create big productions, but this song probably made the whole evening. I went to church feeling a little sad and came away singing this song. I am richer in my spirit.

"There's an anchor for my soul . .I can say all is well
Jesus has overcome
and the grave is overwhelmed
Victory is won
He is risen from the dead
And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagle's wing
Before my God, fall on my knees
And rise, I will rise, I will rise.

Worthy is the Lamb!"
by Chris Tomlin

I want to keep this richness and never let it get away from me again.
