Easter Monday

I found all these photos on Hannah's camera today.

the Easter wreath she made with spring's first blossoms... so pretty

Our family has been memorizing selected questions from the Heidelberg Catechism.
This morning, thankful for Easter Monday faith,
we continued our memory work with these words...

Heidelberg Catechism, Question 60

Q. How are you right with God?

A.

Only by true faith in Jesus Christ.

Even though my conscience accuses me
of having grievously sinned against all God's commandments
and of never having kept any of them,

and even though I am still inclined toward all evil,
nevertheless,
without my deserving it at all,

out of sheer grace,
God grants and credits to me
the perfect satisfaction, righteousness, and holiness of Christ,

as if I had never sinned nor been a sinner, as if I had been as perfectly obedient
as Christ was obedient for me.

All I need to do
is to accept this gift of God
with a believing heart.
