Another Beautiful Morning!
This morning I woke up stuffed up and swollen. I took my morning medicine and some dayquil. Laid back down but couldn't get back to sleep.
Today, Kaylee and I are running over to Faribault to visit grandmas.
Grandma Ruth was transported over to the nursing home yesterday and is settling in. So thankful!

Today's Bible Study
Our Risen Savior
By Charles Stanley
Read | 1 Corinthians 15:12-19
Jesus' life, death, and resurrection form a solid foundation for our Christian faith. Scripture tells us that Jesus lived a perfect life—one without any sin. As the spotless Lamb of God, He willingly went to the cross and sacrificed Himself for us (1 Pet. 1:18-19). Christ bore our sins and endured our punishment so we might be reconciled to God.
The Savior's death was accepted by the Father as full payment for our sins, and it made a way for us to be at peace with Him (Rom. 5:1). Three days after the crucifixion, Jesus was raised from death to life. He had overcome the grave. In victory, He ascended into heaven and now sits at the Father's right hand.
Christ's death and resurrection are a picture of what happened at our salvation. Recognizing ourselves as sinners who could not pay for our own misdeeds, we expressed faith in our Savior. Then, "our old self was crucified with Him" (Rom. 6:6), and we were reborn spiritually. Because of His sacrifice, we were forgiven, reconciled to God, and adopted into His family. Heaven will be our eternal home.
Paul emphasized the importance of the resurrection to the Christian life. He explained that if it were not true, our faith would be in vain.
The risen Christ appeared to many people. He let Thomas touch Him to know that He was alive. After the Lord ascended into heaven, the Father sent His Holy Spirit to indwell believers and bear witness to the truth of the resurrection. Our faith is based on the secure foundation of a risen Savior.
Looking forward to another great day...
