1st Easter Service @ Gibson Ampitheater



Easter was awesome!!! I was invited to the service being offered by the Agape International Spiritual Center at the Gibson Ampitheater, which is at the City Walk/Universal Studios. It was an awesome, awesome, awesome experience!!! We arrived a little late (due to parking misfortune), but arrived on time for the service. We missed the meditation but caught the most important part.

The Ampitheater was packed!! We sat on the balcony. Had a great view! There was so much color on stage, as the Agape International Choir sat on stage and were the background. They were dressed in white, fuschia, turquoise, and orange. It was lovely!!!

I was inspired by a quote the Pastor said. "Jesus' art was his life." His life was his artwork. We are all artist here. We all have some sort of talent. Some people show it through painting, drawing, music, films...but Jesus did it with his life. His life was his art. How powerful is that??? I was so inspired!!

I had a convo with my uncle last week, and to tell you the truth, I don't know much about Jesus. I know he did great work! He was a master. I think we all can be that way. We can all give up our "life" and dedicate it to doing God's will (I say God but please use whatever term with which you are comfortable). He used his life as an example. But the essence is the same no matter what religion, or beliefs. Be good to one another, love each other. Be kind, compassionate and don't judge. Everyone is on a different journey.

I was moved by Dr. Michael's message. My mom was as well!!! We were both sitting there happy and crying. My mom has been a practicing Catholic since she was born, and to see her embrace the moment and enjoy and love from this new place was quite a sight. Mom's is always open to new things, but she was moved by what we felt, saw, and heard. I had big crocodile tears streaming down my face. My journey is proving to be quite emotional. And I've just got on the road!!

I love. I love. I love.

Blessings.
