Ms. Holly had the kids make a resurrection garden a couple weeks ago. I cannot believe how fast the grass grew up and soon completely closed off the view of the cross and blocked the view of the tomb. I can’t help but stop each time I look at it. It looks like a dish of grass. You can’t tell what it was actually meant to be. I don’t see a tomb, I don’t see a cross. Hmmm….every time I look at it I want to cut the grass but at the same time I like the reminder that I can’t let things get in the way of the cross. I can’t let something cause me to forget about the tomb. I hope that they will always be central to how I live my life that I will always see the cross, always see the empty tomb and remember. There’s a song that says: I see the cross of my Redeemer The tree of death on which He died To save the world, the King of heaven Gave up His throne, laid down His life I see the face of my deliverer There on the hill of Calvary His crown of thorns, His broken body The sacrifice He made for me Hallelujah, I give You glory King of my heart, Lord of my soul Hallelujah, You conquered for me My sins and death, forevermore I see the grave of the Messiah The open tomb where He has laid Behold the Son of man has risen The King of kings, ancient of days Hallelujah, I give You glory King of my heart, Lord of my soul Hallelujah, You conquered for me My sins and death, forevermore What do you need to do to see the cross, to remember the tomb? What’s in the way? What have you allowed to grow in your heart that has kept the cross out of view? The link to the song is below if you’d like to take a listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyIY2RliPvg Blessings, Pastor Delinda This is a “before” shot!
