What is an OmaHeck...

It is likely you have never heard of an OmaHeck. We kind of made it up. Here's a little history:

When I moved to Utah in 1990, I was introduced to a brand new phrase: "Oh my heck!" I guess it means "wow", "no way", or "that's surprising." It serves as a multi-purpose expression and possibly a swear :-0 (as in "Oh my heck, you are a jerk!)

When the family left Utah and settled in Omaha, NE (2004), we became "OmaHecks."

He Is Risen

On this Easter Sunday, I am so grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ.

His life was a perfect example for me and my family. His teachings bring peace. That doesn't mean that I'll never have problems; his peace is not the world's peace.

His death for my sins, insecurities, weaknesses and infirmities gives me hope.

His resurrection was the greatest day in the history of mankind. It's what made Christmas so wonderful.

He ascended to His Father's realm and will return in like manner.

I love this picture of the ascension. Notice that there are many planes in the image. The angles' robes are moving in the wind. No such wind affects the 11 Apostles being addressed. The Apostles are looking, longing steadfastly upward while the heavenly messengers are looking directly at the assembled followers.
