At this time of year, we all look forward to the glorious Easter season and experience the joy of Easter morning. The week before Easter is especially meaningful for me as I recall my pre-Easter pilgrimage to the Holy Land and walking that road to Calvary. When I returned from my pilgrimage, I wrote these thoughts which I've used many times in a slide lecture on "My Journey with Jesus." And now I will share with you, my readers of this warm thoughts column.
My Walk with Jesus: I walked the road to Calvary and felt the cross we shared. I felt His presence and His pain and realized how much he cared. How thankful I was in that garden to worship and to pray for guidance, strength and courage to face life day by day. What joy there did await me as I saw the empty grave. I have a risen Savior. He came to live and save. I walked by the Sea of Galilee, what memories there we shared, you gave to the world so much at that sea, and you let me know how much you cared. I walked the road of Emmaus with Jesus by my side. I heard his still voice saying, "Come with me and abide. And while on that Mount of Olives, I felt new Hope, new joy, new faith, and new life. His presence brought me ever nearer to the rainbow of promise that will end all strife. May you have a joy filled Easter season!
