Paul's main thoughts here surround the resurrection of Christ. The crux of our belief is that Jesus did die and was buried and rose on the third day, without it there is no Christianity and there is no Good News. The faith and the hope we have will be tarnished since we have nothing to look back at and/or nothing to look forward to. What makes our belief all the more rewarding is that at the end, He will put all His enemies beneath His feet. What a day of rejoicing that will be! Our task and responsibility is to hold fast to the Gospel and our salvation and bring others into His Kingdom as well.
Again, my prayers remain for those stated earlier - and also for those who have suffered physically. My prayers are for Heather who has suffered much yet still rejoices! I also am still learning to let go and let God!
Praise for today: that I slept through my alarm and missed my workout so I could get the extra rest I needed. God knows what I need and makes a way! Still will slip it in later, I hope.
