Happy Easter!
Today is Good Friday, which has tremendous meaning for me. This is the day Christ died for us. For many years I wasn’t sure exactly what His death meant. Even now I don’t think I’ve even scratched the surface of what His suffering upon that cross entails. What I do know is that because Christ died I shall live one day with Him. I have faith. I believe. I have problems, weaknesses and even moments of depression. Don’t we all? But when I do, I can always reach for my Bible and be comforted by His words: Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Re: Happy Easter!
I am so proud to know such a good Christian woman like you. When the pastor read the scriptures last Sunday, it was like I had really listened to it all. I was raised from birth in the church but the way he read it seemed to bring it close to me. Happy Easter and God bless you and yours.

I am thankful to have a fiction writer who knows the Truth. Thank you for speaking up for Jesus in this way.

Thank you for being vocal about your faith Debbbie and for writing a book, (Knit Together), talking about it. Our nation is in desperate need of people of faith. Happy Resurrection Sunday!

Re: Happy Easter!
Easter means so much more than most of us think. Without Easter Christmas would not be as important. Whatever I go through God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit is right in the middle of.

Happy Easter to Debbie and all her family and fans! Thank you all for your messages of faith. Easter Sunday is the day we celebrate Christ's resurrection, and from that we know that each of us will be resurrected to live with Him eternally. What a wonderful weekend this is! NM in MN

Hi! Happy Easter. I truly can understand what you mean about God helping us out,we all have trouble times, and I have great faith in the mighty lord. I bless him everyday and thank him for my blessings and others. Even when I don't feel like it, but then the day gets better and I know he had something to do with it. Have a bless day. Carole54

Re: Happy Easter!
I, too, am more in tuned with the meaning of the Resurrection this year more so than others. Whenever I think that life is hard, I remember our Lord on the cross, and I realize that my burden is not so heavy. On a another note, my mother has recently taken up reading for pleasure, so for Easter, I sent her several of your books that I have enjoyed reading. I am excited to share my love for your books with her! Thank you for writing books that I can share with my very conservative mother!
