“So this morning our church had 3 services..and this was the first that we were able to be back together again as a choir..other than zoom..but to be able to be in that loft singing praises to our Father in heaven..and especially on this Resurrection Sunday..could not of been any better for any of us..it was completely incredible and so filling to the whole body of Christ..what a privilege and an honor to do so..but as I was heading out for the third service one of my nails messed up..I get sns on mine for it last longer for me other than just painting them..plus I do not have any time whatsoever to be so involved as to worrying about my nails..but anyways there I was and my nail messed up and I’m standing there not at all liking the fact that it is messed up..lol..but any who I begin to speak with the Lord..and I said you know Father even in our imperfections Lord..you still chose Calvary..Amen..even though Lord you knew that we all would fail and falter and even fall..you still chose Calvary..Praise the Lord..and even now Lord here we all stand in your Majesty and you still welcome us with open arms even though we are imperfect human beings..you still choose us Father..You still pursue us Father..You still no matter how messed up we may be You still welcome us into Your house..as I say with open arms..welcoming to come and sit and eat and drink and feast Father from Your table dear Lord..Amen!”

“And in all of that I kept thinking Lord when do we as humans ever get to the place as to where we understand that we will fail and fall..but that we as well forgive ourselves to the point of how you Father forgive us..Amen..for we are imperfectly forgiven by You..Amen..and that to me is the most amazing thing ever..that the greatest gift we ever can receive in all of our lives is what You Lord did on Calvary so that we could be free..and Lord that gift is free..Amen..we don’t work for this gift..for it is anyones gift..for You died for all..for whosoever will call upon Your name shall be saved..Romans 10:13..Amen..for the scripture says that while we were sinners you chose to die for us..Praise the Lord..for You was oppressed, and afflicted, yet Lord, You, opened not Your mouth..You were brought as a lamb Father to the slaughter, as a sheep before her shearers, and You still Lord opened not Your mouth..Isaiah 53:7..Amen..for Lord what a price You alone paid for us all..we could never repay You Lord for all that you’ve done..for You were despised and rejected of men; You were a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief..and we hid our faces from You, Lord;..You were despised, and we esteemed You not, Lord..Isaiah 53:3..Amen!”

“For the Lord could’ve walked away and chose to go another route in His life..even in the Garden of Gethsemane there the Lord cried out tears of blood in much anxious to His Father..He said Father if it be Your will let this cup pass from me..but never the less not my will but yours be done..Luke 22:42..Amen..so when I think about the price that was paid for us and our Salvation..I can’t get over the fact that a million times I may fail my Lord..and a million times I do mess up..and I do say things..and act ways..and I am not all together put together..life isn’t perfect..troubles happen..and imperfections are there..and even though they are the Lord still welcomes us..Amen..even in all of that He still loves us..and holds us..and comforts us..and fills us up..and chooses us..over and over..again and again..even though were not perfect..He loves us..Praise the Lord..so remember that we are all imperfectly perfect in our Fathers eyes..when He looks at us He sees His son Jesus’ blood that was shed on Calvary for you and for me that we could be free and have eternal Salvation..Praise the Lord..so know that you are Loved..with an everlasting Love from the Lord our God..Jesus Christ..no matter what you’ve done or did..He forgives you..and He open His home and His life to you..and know always that you are welcomed..Amen..never run away from Jesus..for Jesus is a friend that sticks closer than any brother..Proverbs 18:24..and He is always for you and never against you..for we are perfect in His eyes..imperfectly perfect human beings we are..for the Lord looks at our hearts..and He sees who we are in Him..Amen..so my heart is that each of you have a blessed and beautiful Easter day..and that you understand just how much you alone are loved..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
