Spring is in the Air!

Here are a few pictures I snapped today.  It's been so nice out lately!  Spring is definitely finally here!

And now, my favourite one:

Mckmama's "A Little iPad With A Big Purpose" Giveaway!

Sorry I've been kind of 'missing in action' lately.  Life's been crazy the past couple weeks.  My mind has been preoccupied with finishing school with good grades and some other more serious extended family matters.  I hope to be back here soon (and finish my Easter discussion!)

School is officially over so now I just have a few exams, and a couple of papers to do in the next week and then I should be back!

But I wanted to let you participate in a really neat giveaway my online "friend" is doing...

It's only open to US residents (too bad for us Canadians!), so in case I have any US readers, here's the giveaway contest:

Mckmama is giving away an iPad, but it's not just any ordinary givaway - she wanted to raise money for Compassion International's Child Survival Program!!  I'll let her explain all the rest!!  Check it out!  It goes until Midnight EST, so hurry on over there and see how you can help Children around the world and possibly win an iPad! 

At The Cross, I am Changed...

I guess this weekend has been a bit busier than I expected, so I haven't finished my post on the Cross.  It's coming though, eventually. 

I really wanted to post this song with my continuation of my previous post on the Cross, but I guess I'll give you the post backwards...song/video first, than the writing.

I hadn't heard this song before, and I'd love to find out who wrote/sings it.  It's beautiful!

Good Friday

I found two videos for today.  The first video is the traditional version of "Via Dolorosa."  The second is a rap, and while I'm not usually the type of person to listen to raps, I found this one pretty interesting.  It's fun and clearly describes what happened on "Good Friday."  And of course, it doesn't end there, so listen to it to hear the end, which is my favorite part :)

Also, stay tuned as I hope to finish my thoughts on the cross today!

The Grave Could Not Hold The King!!!

Today's song is Arise My Love by Newsong.  Again, this is one of my favourite songs!  (There are just too many good ones to have a real favourite :)

The entire song is amazing, but my favourite part is the bridge.  It's just so powerful!
