I just realized that we got through the winter without frozen water at UMEM in Salem. This has been an ongoing issue each winter for the past several years. We can celebrate that the relatively mild winter was kind to us and let us have water and working bathrooms all winter. I know that the Salem staff are glad that they do not have to lug water to work every day.
So, we celebrate the seemingly minor things even as we celebrate God's greatest gift to us, his Son, a loving sacrifice for us. On this Maundy Thursday we hear the story of Jesus in the garden and the events leading up to the crucifixion. On this glorious Easter morning, remember to celebrate. "Christ the Lord is risen today!"
