The Building Brows: DIY house construction & life of a large VT family living small

Welcome to Blog Your Blessings Sunday on this wonderful Easter day. Can you guess what blessing I'm blogging about today?

The resurrected JESUS!

I have an Easter greeting card for you.

There is so much I could blog about Jesus. I could try to tell you all He's done for me, but there isn't enough time or space to share it all and what He means to me. I say with 100% accuracy, though, that Jesus is the supreme blessing of all blessings in my life.

I owe Jesus everything--literally everything, from the land I sit on to my husband, to my kids, to the very capability to use my limbs and think. In August 2004 I suffered for ten to fourteen days from what doctors could only guess was viral encephalitis. I had become an invalid--unable to eat, think, stand, focus my vision, or move my limbs at will. By God's grace alone am I fully restored today, and I cherish small simple functions I used to take for granted. Praise be to God!

Have something good in life? Anything? (I just know there is something somewhere.) You can bet it's from God. He is the giver of good gifts. I encourage you to take a moment to thank Him for it.

Happy Easter, friend.

PS I have a little multi-colored glass perfume bottle I could send you, if you would like. Right now, it's just sitting in my give-away pile. Would you like to see a picture first?

Really Leah? I'd love to see a pic. Would you send me the picture by link or e-mail? (See E-mail Me" in the sidebar) Thanks. :)
At 3:21 PM , Leah said...: Hi Brandy. I just e-mailed you two photos to your gmail account. Let me know if you get it, because I've been having some e-mail troubles lately. I also posted them online here: http://www.raisetheranch.com/bottles/bottle1.jpg and http://www.raisetheranch.com/bottles/bottle2.jpg. Let me know if you'd like it!
