Conversely, it was the first time in years I attended the Maundy Thursday service. <br /><br />Next year I plan to attend all the Holy Week activities, like i have always done in the past. Good Friday, as you said, is an important reminder for all of us that Jesus SUFFERED to redeem us. While it is important to focus on the resurrection, we shouldn't forget that without Christ's death the resurrection wouldn't have been.quillyhttp://quilldancer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2172707736566212799.post-90093613115050169592011-04-23T10:55:11.161-05:002011-04-23T10:55:11.161-05:00This is such a great idea for the flashback this w...This is such a great idea for the flashback this week. <br /><br />Interesting to think how Mary would feel standing at the cross and thinking about when she found out she was going to be a mother.bphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884081028227999883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2172707736566212799.post-63726971128183970382011-04-22T09:40:51.154-05:002011-04-22T09:40:51.154-05:00The above comment was from Mrs. Jim's computer...The above comment was from Mrs. Jim's computer. I didn't notice until I returned here now.<br /><br />Just thought of another song that I think might fit you and your feelings really well, <em>Mary, Did You Know?</em><br /><br />I thought it had the Easter message but I was wrong. It ends this way:<br /><em>Mary did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?<br />Mary did you know that your baby boy will one day rule the nations?<br />Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?<br />This sleeping child you're holding is the great I am.</em><br /><br />http://artists.letssingit.com/mark-lowry-lyrics-mary-did-you-know-hc1xwsv<br />..<br />I asked Mrs. Jim if her feelings had changed about the Crucifixation and Easter after she had become a Mother. She said 'no' but I think now after me asking her that she may.<br />Thank you.<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2172707736566212799.post-74064260409661510412011-04-22T07:34:49.552-05:002011-04-22T07:34:49.552-05:00Very nice, Linda.

As a mother yourself I can see how you would pick up on that in a very personal situation.<br /><br />Happy Easter, Linda! Now we will celebrate Jesus' triumph over the grave and from his horrible earthly death.<br />..<br />BTW (p.s) Remember that you are on my<em> blogging buddy prayer lis</em>t as are many others here.Mrs. Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04661001255158472388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2172707736566212799.post-30252879667985626962011-04-22T06:59:58.796-05:002011-04-22T06:59:58.796-05:00I hope you and yours have a wonderful, blessed Eas...I hope you and yours have a wonderful, blessed Easter.
