If You Want your Secrets Kept Mum -Postcard Friendship Friday #356




I love this old postcard.  I do tell my Mother all my secrets--she's the best Mom ever.  But the funny thing is, I also call her Mum, Mumsy and Mummy.  So this week's postcard is to my beloved Mummers-Mum-Mumsie--the sweetest most lovely Mom in the world.

Have a lovely weekend and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

Little Fireman -Postcard Friendship Friday #355


This is a postcard I put up a little over eight years ago.  I'm so busy I hadn't had the time to acquire a postcard for this week, so I'm re-posting it!

I admired the artist who drew this amazing little boy so much, my darling Sissy gave me the original boxed set from her extensive collection of cards. I felt so honored--They are just wonderful.  This postcard is three times as big as a normal one!

 
A warm and friendly "Hi" from me -- Thinkin' and wonderin' how you be!  Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

He is Risen! -Postcard Friendship Friday #354



“But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb; and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.

“They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?"

“She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him." Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

“Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?"

“Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away."

“Jesus said to her, ‘Mary.’"

“She turned and said to him in Hebrew, ‘Rabboni!’ (which means Teacher).

“Jesus said to her, ‘Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’

“Mary Magdalene went and said to the disciples, ‘I have seen the Lord;’ and she told them that He had said these things to her.”
~John 20:11-18


I can only imagine the tenderness in His voice, as He said her name.

I can only imagine the joy and awe Mary Magdalene must have felt. When she realized who He was she could hardly keep from throwing her arms around Him.

Dear Friends, He calls all of us by name.  He sees our endless tears--through His wounds he brings healing to our deepest hurts. He is Risen!  He is Risen indeed...such is the true meaning of Easter.  A joyous Easter to you all!

And Happy Postcard Friendship Friday.

Love and Peace at Easter -Postcard Friendship Friday #353


I love the way artists of old used violets.  Violets are so pretty.  Just now they are springing up all over the yard.  I miss the yellow Johnny Jump-ups of my childhood.  With the clearing of the forests of my childhood--they are moistly gone, along with the trilliums, May flowers, sword fern, star flowers and the sweet shamrock.

But setting that aside, I hope you all have a lovely Easter.  It is a time to celebrate hope.
