This week tends to be one where we turn our thoughts towards Jesus and his mighty sacrifice for us. But what about the rest of the year? Don’t you want to stay focused on the Cross after Easter?

“Christ’s death upon the Cross is of utmost importance in the life of the believer. In fact, Paul states that it is of first importance – nothing else is of more value.” Deborah Haddix

  1. May we keep the sacrifice of Jesus present in our vision so that we treat others the way he wants us to treat them–even if we’re stressed, grumpy, or feel out of control.

  2. He has risen indeed Maree!
    To answer your question, I stay focused upon Him during the year by requesting to see life, people & circumstances through His eyes instead of my eyes…Things are so much clearer through His.
    Bless you,
    Jennifer

    1. Jennifer, Your response is beautiful. I agree things are so much clearer through His eyes. Happy Easter to you! Maree
