Your name was written on His palm


Did you know, while our King was on the cross,

Your face was in his eyes,

Your life was in his mind,

Your sin was on his back,

Love of you, was in his heart,

for beloved, your name was written on his palm.


Before the girls head out on Friday morning, I will stamp thier hands in red and write thier names across thier palm, that they will remember Christ's death was not a generic salvation plan for all - it was for them. May you too remember that Christ died for you - specifically, wonderfully for you. You are his beloved.

Holy Week Devotions

I have posted the daily family devotions for Holy Week (Monday-Sunday) up on my website. I hope they are a blessing to your family as you walk through this week of remembering Christ's sacrifice for us.
I am looking at my week ahead and looking for ways to make it quieter. As a family we will say no to a number of things this week; playdates, workouts, errands, and TV time are going to be set aside this week. In its place we're going to attend a family Maundy Thursday service, do our daily devotions and spend some more time together as a family.
I wish your family a wonderful week.
