No tourists here.

Happy Easter. He is Risen, and life is good. See if you can guess the location of my favorite beach.

Today was a blur. We got my mom to church and then back to her home safely. It is like having another kid, and the three we have are enough.

After that, we made it to Easter dinner. A little witnessing around the table. The cousin I was speaking with brought up some very good questions that led to some great discussion. As usual, the people who listened the most were the quiet ones at the periphery.

Plant those seeds, plant those seeds. This generation trusts in their own goodness, and not in Jesus.

Hebrews 9:27

Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment

We don't get a second chance. If all you have to do is be sorry after you die to get into heaven, then answer this one question...

Why did Jesus have to die?

Psalm 31:19

How great is your goodness,
which you have stored up for those who fear you,
which you bestow in the sight of men
on those who take refuge in you.
