every Sunday

"Every day belongs to God. But Sunday is the Lord's day in a special way. Jesus has owned it uniquely ever since that first Easter when He stepped out of the empty tomb. Think of it. On that morning, for the first time, He had conquered death. He had atoned for our sin. He had made a way for us to come boldly into the presence of the Father. And every Sunday since has been an anniversary of that amazing morning. The Savior has risen - and everything has changed"

from a letter...

How is your heart doing today? You know what's amazing and scary to think about? God can hear the thoughts and inclinations of our hearts as if we were yelling at Him with a loudspeaker. He doesn't miss anything! Doesn't thinking about this make you want to run to Christ? As the thoughts and attitudes of your heart are tested, run to Christ, and remember that God looks upon you with favor because of Jesus.
