Easter weekend

Easter weekend at our house was great fun! Even though it was pouring rain on Sunday that was all fine and dandy here that the Pursley residence. We had my parents out and our good friends - The Greers - came over after church. Church, was awesome! We absolutely love when Nick Floyd speaks. He really seems to speak to us. Not that we don't love Ronnie, we do love Ronnie, but Nick is just amazing and different of course. Also, it was the last week of the drama of Christ being crucified. Holy smokes, what an incredible thing to watch in person. I can't even begin to imagine what it was like really being there! As we watched Jesus heal the blind, make the crippled walk and heal the leapers, we all had tears in our eyes! The first week was absolutely amazing and made it so real. The second week of the last supper. As we took communion and watched them reenact the last supper on stage, my heart was filled with the Holy Spirit. I felt so different that Sunday than any other Sunday. Not that is makes it mean any more to be watching a reenactment...it's hard to explain. Then Easter Sunday; the crucifixion and the resurrection.  OH MY WORD! What an incredible display of the truth. How great is our God!
