A most beautiful portrait of a Christian mother is given to us in the Bible. Chapter 31 of Proverbs speaks of all these qualities. Read all about them there: Wisdom, Industry, Generosity, Faithfulness, Character, Faith! May God’s abounding grace bless you, mother, and yes, abound toward each and everyone of us, so that the virtues will be authentic and evident in each and everyone of us!

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” This is the picture of the Christian’s hope! “See to it that you’re not alarmed.” Matt. 24:6
Max Lucado says, “All things big and small, flow out of the purpose of God and serve his good will. When the world appears out of control, it isn’t. When warmongers appear to be in charge, they aren’t. When ecological catastrophes dominate the day, don’t let them dominate you.” (Fearless, 2009)

Easter has this power in it! Jesus said, “I’ve come that you might have life…!” John 10:10. This is certainly the resurrection message. To think, that God has provided in His Son, Jesus Christ, the glorious hope of life! And we celebrate life!
We have been focused on the theme “Fearless.” Christ’s resurrection addresses all our fears. Max Lucado says, “Dare we set our hope and hearts in the hands of a small-town Jewish carpenter? The answer rests in the Jerusalem graveyard. If Jesus’ tomb is empty, then His promise is NOT!”
I serve a risen Savior, He’s in the world today. I know that He is living, whatever men may say. I see His hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer, And just the time I need Him, He’s always near!
Let’s come together at Central Wesleyan, this Sunday, and lift our voices in song. The breakfast is at 9:30, and the Easter Celebration Gathering is at 10:30. He is risen! “Stay Strong – Trust Christ!”
