He is Risen Indeed!

Sharing some of the pages from our bible art journaling facebook group that reflect the truths from this Easter time, when we particularly remember God's amazing love for us:

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

John 3:16 NIV UK

"It wasn't the nails that held Jesus to the cross, 

it was His love for the world"

Jane B

"Leave some room in your heart

for the unimaginable"

Jane B

"Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 .. He was buried, .. He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,"

1 Corinthians 15: 3-4

Deborah

 "Thank you for the cross Lord

Thank you for the price You paid

Bearing all my sin and shame

In love You came and gave amazing grace

"Thank you for the cross"

Lisa

Thank you for this love Lord

Thank you for the nail pierced hands

Washed me in Your cleansing flow

Now all I know Your forgiveness and embrace

Worthy is the Lamb

Seated on the throne

Crown You now with many crowns

You reign victorious

High and lifted up

Jesus, Son of God

The Darling of Heaven crucified

Worthy is the Lamb

Worthy is the Lamb"

- Hillsong

"On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 

"You are looking for the living one in a cemetery.  He is not here,

but raised up"

Sharon

While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, ‘Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: “The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.”’ Then they remembered his words."

Luke 24: 1-8

"In letters of crimson, God wrote His love.

On the hillside so long, long ago,

For you and me Jesuas died

And Love's greatest story was told

Down through the ages God wrote His love with the 

same hands that suffered and bled

Giving all that He had to give, 

A message so easily read"

Sharon

Gill S

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead"

1 Peter 1:3-4

Happy Easter!  May you know God's love, joy and peace xxx
