Happy Easter to you!

I hope while you enjoy the Easter candy and maybe a family cookout, you also know and understand the significance of the Good News and why we are celebrating. We celebrate Christ’s victory and the freedom we were given through Christ Jesus, who died for us on the cross.

I have learned that friends will listen to you and will help you where they can, but they cannot drag you out of unhappiness or a self pity pit.  You can do it and here is how it has worked for me a couple of times.  I  will share with you a few ideas on how to create your “memorable moments medicine” that you can take next time you need a reminder of all the ways God has been there to help you (not expanding on the fact that we are all doing way better than we deserve…).
