Some of the dearest scriptures to me as a mom are the ones that speak of Mary, the mother of Jesus, treasuring and pondering in her heart events from Jesus' youth. (Luke 2:19, 51) I can't even wrap my mind around what it must have been like to be His mother - during His childhood, throughout His ministry, at His crucifixion, after His resurrection.
We most often associate Mark Lowry's beautiful song Mary, Did You Know? with Christmas. But it is also an incredibly poignant song during this Holy Week. I love hearing it juxtaposed with the images in this video.
And if that didn't stir your heart, I guarantee that this post by Missy will!
That was a blessing indeed to hear that song played with that video. Thank you so much. Have a blessed Easter celebrating the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord.
I'm in my "fabulous fifties" and my husband and I have been married 25 years. We have a son and a daughter who are both in college. so we are reluctantly entering the empty-nest years. I was an RN in my former (pre-kids) life which comes in handy as I serve in our church's care ministry.
Chatting over a cup of coffee with a friend to encourage and support one another (and share a laugh or even a tear) is one of my favorite things to do.

This is my all time favorite hymn. If I had to pick only one, this would be it.
Thanks for that. I could listen to it all the time but never thought of it in relation to Easter, but oh so appropriate. Thank you and God Bless.

I've been thinking about Mary also. Even wrote a post about it today.
