Amen! Wake up and smell the wild, savage beauty of the Cross.
I love the way you put that, Cynthia. xoxo

Oh yes, I see where you’re going with that… 🙂 xoxo
I had to read that 4 times before it made sense to me. Yes! Yes! Smelling Salts! What a perfect metaphor. Your eyes pop open, you come to your senses, your head now feels clear…and there stands Jesus with His hand out stretched.
Wow — so true Valerie! I love the picture this paints for me… xoxo
