If you live in East Tennessee, you know it has rained A LOT these last few weeks. I think it rained almost every day in the month of February. March is off to a wet start as well.
Last week, we finally started getting a little bit of a break from the rain.
As I was driving to work one day, I noticed the most beautiful sunrise. The next morning I saw another stunning sunrise.
It's not that I haven't seen sunrises before. They are actually some of the most beautiful parts of God's creation in my opinion.
Here are my two pictures:

They aren't the best by any means. And pictures almost never do the real thing justice. But after so many days of rain, it was like seeing it all anew.
As I was driving, I started thinking about the work "sunrise". I thought about how close it is to "Son Rise", which is what Jesus did the third day after He died on the cross.
God sends us such a beautiful reminder of what His Son did for us all those years ago, raising from the grave, conquering death, hell, and the grave, EVERY MORNING.
The sun comes up every morning, whether it is beautiful and memorable or it is just hidden behind some clouds.
Next time you see the sunrise, remember the beauty of the cross and the Son Rise on the third day.
The beauty of the cross is that Jesus came and died for our sins. All you have to do to accept the free gift of salvation is trust that He died and that He rose. You have to believe on Him and repent (or turn) from your sins. Give your heart to Jesus because nothing else in this world matters apart from that when it comes to eternity.
Thanks for reading.
In God, Emily
