Matthew 20:28  “just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”   Today, is the anniversary of His death on the cross.  The darkest, saddest, most horrific of days.  We face this anniversary with HOPE!  Our hope lies in the future given to us freely.  This Sunday, remember not so much the pain left behind from today’s anniversary, but the HOPE given to us because HE AROSE from the dead!  Many people saw Him and spoke to Him and witnessed his ascension into Heaven.  He LIVES!  Our Hope for eternity is our FAITH in HIM!  I encourage you to attend church this weekend!  You will be blessed!
