It's a journal. It's a devotional. It's a record of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivor. It's documentation of God's activities in real time. There are good days and bad, happy times and sad... I tell it like it is. This is an unscripted walk along the meandering paths of my mind. My life has never been dull... and I've never known boredom. Read on, you'll see...

Easter Joys

Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays. This Easter was no exception. It was rainy and I was tired so we went to the 11 o’clock service. Our little church was almost packed and it was great to see a full house. Pastor Rob preached a wonderful sermon about death and salvation; about rebirth and resurrection. I recall the music was great and included some of my favorites, but I cannot now remember what we sang.

We came home after church and spent the afternoon putting a jigsaw puzzle together and finishing some paperwork projects. Well, that is not exactly true, there are still piles of paperwork all over the kitchen counters, so we didn't quite finish. They will be taken care of tomorrow, I hope.

All in all it was a quiet day; a restful day; a day of joy. There was time for prayer and contemplation of God's most priceless gift to men. It is good to know that Jesus lives. It is good to know that I will see him. He is my Easter Joy way and I am His.
