Thanks God for Sharing Your Resurrection in so Many Ways

I had the most wonderful birthday this year. My birthday is in spring, April 8th (1954 if you would like to know). I am a glorious 53 years of age, and I do mean glorious. Sometimes my birthday falls on Easter Sunday. I love birthdays, not just mine, but all birthdays. I love celebrating the glorious miracle of people. I also love spring. Spring is my favorite time of year. Spring is another miracle I love to celebrate. I think our culture should have a "Celebrate Spring Holiday" and we should all have a grand party with many flowers and brightly colored clothes and trays of the lovely first fruits and vegetables of spring. I know that this might sound like Easter, but we need another day to just concentrate on the glory that God communicates through spring. (You might hear me blog in the other seasons my love for them, but in the gauge of loving seasons, spring is definitely my favorite). I also love Easter. (I definitely need to find some more descriptive and definitive words to describe levels of positive emotion and attraction other than love.) Well, back to my wonderful birthday. Every time my birthday falls on Easter, I feel so honored and loved by God that I could share his blessed day. (That really emphasizes my "I" personality doesn't it.) This Easter could not have been more enjoyable to me. God poured his love on me in a special way through many joys, hugs and kisses from heaven. Below is a list of the ones I can think of at this moment:
*my husband sang happy birthday to me and gave me a wonderful card, expressing his love in just the right words
*I got to go to church with my beloved God family
*I got to worship my great living God with my beloved God family
*Pam Park told me happy birthday right before worship with the sweetest, most genuine smile of love
*Cherith picked wonderful songs (she actually always does this)
*I got to go to my best friends house (KH) for lunch with my Hawk relatives
*I made a chocolate meringue pie and a coconut custard pie for lunch and they turned out great and everyone had a fit over them
*Gail Cleveland made a coconut cake (my favorite) for the party and God told me it was my birthday cake - for some reason I don't get many birthday cakes, so this was very special
*My husband didn't ask to leave the Easter lunch until I was ready to go
*I got to visit with so many of my lovely God family about God and Easter and babes and food and the weather and love and miracles and Bryan's sermon...
*My precious prophet leader, Bryan Cauthen, gave a radical life changing sermon and gave an awesome analogy - he is so brave and walks with abandoned love for his God
Thank you God for Easter and for my birthday and that you really really love me - I will always be grateful. Let us all be grateful for his sacrifice, for his resurrection power, for his living in us now.

Praises to my God

My heart is full of praise for you
Full and overflowing
My mouth is full of praises too
Full and overflowing
I'll sing of the great things you've done
And your mighty works to come
What great changes you've begun
I'm full and overflowing
