“The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend.” A.W. Tozer
It would be a MASSIVE understatement to say that what we all witnessed on Easter Sunday was a display of God’s goodness… it was, but it was so much more.
There was JOY.
There was NEW LIFE.
There was TRANSFORMATION.
There was POWER.
There was PEACE.
There was WORSHIP.
There was CONNECTION.
There was LAUGHTER.
There was GENEROSITY.
There was GRATITUDE.
There was LOVE.
There was GRACE.
There was KINDNESS.
To be honest, I could go on and on and on with different adjectives to describe ALL that happened this past Easter Sunday, but all of these adjectives will fall woefully short to describe the Presence of God in our midst. We experienced in part His GOODNESS… and wow, it was so good!
Numbers cannot tell the whole story, but they at least give a glimpse into the GOODNESS of God this past Easter.

Easter was AMAZING… but Easter was just a snapshot… a foreshadow of ALL that God wants to do with His church called GENESIS. In looking back to all that was Easter, I am in awe of what God accomplished. But, as I look forward to ALL that God desires to do in the days ahead, well, I’m in AWE that God would allow you and I to be part of it all.
Let’s keep our eyes and hearts and minds and ears (basically the totality of who we are) focused and fixed on the One who said: “Follow me."
