Looking to the Son







Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2


This is Easter week...a busy time for families in ministry since Sunday will, no doubt, be the most attended worship service of the year. So much to prepare! And for Adam and me, this is our first Easter as parents. Levi will be looking to us to see what this whole Easter holiday is about. No pressure, right?


So...even amidst all the hustle and bustle of Easter preparations, egg hunts, and family gatherings, I am determined to stay focused on Jesus. My most fervent prayer lately is that my son will come to know The Son in a personal way. May Levi experience the saving grace and inexplicable peace that only the Son of God can provide. I captured these photos at church last week, and I thought they perfectly illustrated my feelings. Levi, I pray you always keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith.
