Well, regarding my ralma mater's run to the final four, it ended a little short. But it was fun while it lasted. Time for football season.
Actually it's Easter Season. Actually, it's still Lenten season. It's still the time of the year to spiritually clean house and prepare for Easter. I'm so glad our church takes Lent seriously and uses the time to focus on the meaning of the life of Jesus and what led to his crucifixion. It's too easy to just wake up and find that it's Easter morning, but as I've said before, you can't really experience Easter without experiencing Good Friday. And you can't really get Good Friday unless you've travelled through Lent. And while Lent is maybe not the most fun experience much of the time, Easter is so wonderful, it's worth the journey.
Jesus thought so. He thought Resurrection was worth Crucifixion. He thought Salvation was worth it too. Aren't we thankful. I'm blown away when I really stop and think about it.
