Well, it’s the last day of winter – and we knew it. Despite the sun it was very cold and windy. I was outside putting up Easter lights and changing flags and planting Styrofoam eggs — and I was very cold. I did spend the day finishing the decorations. I will run the sweeper later as I made a lot of dust and glitter dragging boxes in and out.

Easter Tree – first attempt!

Below are pics of some of my accomplishments. I really enjoy the tree – never did that before!

I will share Paul’s message from River Hill: The Anger of Jesus. Yes, Jesus got angry, but it was justified and righteous anger. Our emotions are distorted by sin. 1) Anger is in the character of God – but it’s in us too. We’re sinners but God is not. In your anger do not sin. Don’t give the devil a foothold. We need to give God our best, not our leftovers. There are 2 kinds of anger: A) Sinful. Stems from the sin within us. Motivation can be jealousy, fear, greed, etc – Anger begins as a heart problem.. We must rise above our anger. Is your anger justified or motivated by sin. How should we express anger in a good way so we don’t sin? B) loving anger – motivated by love; use anger to teach the truth. Look to Jesus as our example.

On this day in 1928 “Amos & Andy” debuted, and in 1964 Sean Connery started filming as James Bond in Goldfinger. William Bradford – governor of the Plymouth Colony for 30 years – was born in 1589, David Livingstone in 1813, Wyatt Earp (marshal at the gunfight at the OK Corral) in 1848. Lynda Bird Johnson Robb – President LBJ’s daughter – was born in 1944, Glenn Close, actress, in 1947, and Bruce Willis in 1955. Anne Klein (designed) died in 1974 at age 50. My friend Gayle from church is having a birthday today – have a great day, Gayle – and many more! Also, my cousin John’s wife, Judy, is celebrating a birthday today. She’s in the midst of some serious health concerns, so I want to wish her the happiest of birthdays and a quick return to feeling perky and happy! She has been the cheerleader for our family for so long – I want to cheer her on, now! Love you, Judy – happy birthday! God bless!
