Topic: Easter (05/30/05)
The day when we stop and take a moment to pause...When what once seemed so important to us, suddenly doesnt seem as important as the sacrifice HE made for us on that cross. Nothing anyone has every done, is anything compared to what HE endured on the cross for us. Do you want to know why HE did it, because HE loves us more than anything. think of what you think of when you think of love, HE loves you a trillion times more then that. When you feel like you are all alone, and no one on this earth cares for you, and those you trusted to stand by your side and support you, those who are supposed to be family and not betray you, have, or a friend, who promised to never leave, but didnt follow through, you just say, is there anyone out there who is kind? then HE takes us back to the cross, and reminds us that he allows us to go through trials, simply just to show us, that we are so wrong, when we say there is no one who is kind, HE IS VERY KIND, and always will be, and is holding our hand, and never ever will HE let it go. We may have to give up some stuff, in life, he may cause us to make some adjustments, and move out of our comfort zones, a bit, but in the end, anything he asks us to give up, isnt anything compared to love HE is about to show us, or already shown us on the cross, and what HE is about to do with our lives once we fully and completely turn it over to HIM, holding nothing back...a LORD who would die for us, so we would be free. who loves us that much to go through that much lengths,because HE cares, we are not alone my friends, we are not alone, the world may be unkind, but he is very kind, and that is what easter is all about, a chance to remind us, just how much our savior loves us, by taking us back to where it all started on the cross. nothing is more important than that, if we lose our communion with our JESUS, nothing we accomplish in life from that moment on, will mean anything, if it cost us our closeness with HIM, life is too short to worry about stuff, that wont matter when this world comes to an end, and we got to live for eternity, because that is where we are going to spend most of our time, with our heavenly father, do what matters to HIM, because HE is the one you will be spending many more years with, then the people here, we are trying to please..."Love the LORD your GOD with all your heart, with all your soul, and with our your mind" because HE sure does love you...HE died IN YOUR PLACE, so you wouldnt have to...you are not alone...celebrate the joy of easter in your hearts everyday, because nothing matters more then the cross, its the reason we are here, to lift HIM up and to tell others about HIS love, HE wants you to allow HIM to continue to show HIS love in and through your life. Wont you let HIM? What are you waiting for? He is waiting with open arms, dont look to the left or the right, just open the door to your heart and let HIM in....GOD BLESS, i will be praying for you....your sister in heaven...

Break this up into paragraphs and get rid of the 2nd. person references and you have a viable entry.

It's obvious you give a lot of thought to scripture, which is wonderful! This read as a journal entry and I felt like I was taking a peek into your own private thoughts. There were quite a few grammatical and spelling errors and it was difficult to read because of the lack of paragraphs. But those things can be learned. Thanks for sharing. Keep writing!
Blessings, Lynda

Yes. Definitely add some "white space" to the writing. You do have so much to say though, so please be encouraged that the technical things can be learned very easily. You absolutely have the HEART! Keep writing. You are in the right place. Blessings to you. :0)

Good ideas but paragraphs would make it easier to read.
