Last year on Easter Sunday, to introduce my husband's sermon, I sang the song “Redeemer” written by Nicole C. Mullins. One of the lines in the chorus says, “I know my redeemer lives.” Then my husband preached an Easter sermon entitled “I Know He Lives.” During his sermon, he spoke of the tremendous love of Christ.
So after church when a little girl about seven came running up to Don exclaiming, “I know Jesus loves me!” he thought she must have been paying attention to the sermon.
“I know, Honey! Jesus loves you.”
She grinned even wider, followed him a few more steps and said, “Pastor, I know Jesus loves me.”
Don turned around, patted her on the head and said, “Praise the Lord. He does!”
Finally, the little girl sighed in exasperation and said, “I KNOW 'Jesus Loves Me.' Don’t you want to hear me sing it?”

The other night I heard the song by Steppenwolf, Born to Be Wild. It brought back memories of Junior High and High School - that song had legs! When it came on the radio, my friends and I turned the volume up, and da-da-da'd through the verses, and on the chorus belted out, "Born to be wi-l-d," and played air guitar or in my case, drums. Oh, were we wild.Labels: Atonement, blood of Christ, Christmas, Crossmap, Devotional, Devotionals by Donna, devotions, Donna Shepherd, Easter, Inspiration, Resurrection Sunday, Salvation, Spirituality
