How do you feel when the party’s over? There’s a bit of a “come back down” feeling. The Winchester area has that after the great Apple Blossom weekend.
The painted blooms on the streets are still visible, but they’ve lost a bit of that anticipatory flare! The grandstand’s but half what it was a day or 2 ago. Some of us are sunburned and still have aching feet. Such is the toll of celebration on the human body.
Still the human spirit looks forward to the next celebration. Don’t you?
There’s some down-time. That’s how life goes. But the heart already looks forward to what’s next. The bible calls it hope.
I’m looking forward to the next “party.” Not Cinco de Mayo (tomorrow, May 5th). Not Memorial Day cook-outs.
I’m talking about Sunday (sure it’s Mothers’ Day) – the little resurrection day!
I’m talking about Sunday – every Sunday – as a little Easter! A day to celebrate -anew- Christ’s resurrection! A day to appreciate & anticipate our life-everlasting with God.
So, as the parties come & go, and another celebration winds down in your life, always look forward to the next great event: this Sunday!
Come celebrate Christ-is-Risen! with me at Macedonia Church – any & every Sunday!

We can never praise God too much! Celebrating Christ-is-risen, hearing His Word, allowing the music to touch your soul, makes Sundays a “good day”!
