Skipping Easter

Easter Sunday is THE day that so many churches swell in attendance but I wonder how many people are skipping Easter this year.  Oh, they will be at church but probably will skip the benefits. Judas was one such person...he was with Jesus, learned from Him, followed Him but when it came right down to it he skipped the most important part of Jesus' life.  He bailed at the end just as Jesus was about to die for the sins of the world including Judas' sins.

Judas missed the crucifixion and the Resurrection for his own selfish reasons.  I wonder how many people will skip Easter this year and miss the point of Jesus' life purpose.

Life goes by fast

If you are like me you have realized that 2009 zoomed by. Life goes by fast, my Dad warned me.  So did God in Psalm 39:4-5.  Since our days are numbered, it is important to set some goals to achieve each year and sometimes each day.  Here are some great goals for 2010 I hope to accomplish:
1- Love deeper.
2- Pray harder.
3- Focus more intently.
4- Seek to make the greatest impact. 

2010 will be gone sooner than you think...don't let the busy-ness of life overcome your life.
