4 Surely he took up our infirmities
and carried our sorrows,
yet we considered him stricken by God,
smitten by him, and afflicted.5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,
and by his wounds we are healed.- Isaiah 53
This has always been one of my favorite verses about Jesus' work on the cross.
Happy Easter, everyone!
Also, Janet is coming back tomorrow! We are gettin' jealous!

Emily!! I miss you, girl... I also love that passage, it always reminds me of the song in Handel's Messiah... "Surely He Hath Borne our Griefs." :) I hope your Easter was good.
However, I have a question-- would you mind at all if I called you and asked you some questions??? You see, I need to write a story of sorts in my news writing class, and I'm writing about practical ways to live on your own after you graduate from college. I thought I could ask you, since you just recently graduated... let me know if that'd be alright with you and what time would be best!
