Back From The Dead

This Sunday is Easter.  Most people celebrate Jesus and His coming back from the dead. We celebrate all who come back from the dead. Brett Favre came back from the dead.

We are both survivors and "back from the dead."

This is not about religion, or faith or going to church.  This is about life.

Life is about living and doing your best -- whatever the cost.

Silver star recipient Sgt. Leigh Ann Hester of the 617th Military Police Company, a National Guard unit out of Richmond, Ky., is resurected.  She came back from the dead: a death the enemy called for but God intervened.

So we celebrate this Sunday all those we know who have come back from the dead.  They are many and they are blessed and they are spectacular.  And we are honored and blessed to know them: each and every one!
