As you are
preparing for Easter, what is your focus on? Does your household celebrate with
the colors of spring, the Easter Bunny, eggs, candy and baskets or is the focus
on the Passion and Resurrection of Y’shua (Jesus) with gratitude and joy for
our Salvation?
It is time we
stop sharing our Holy Days with the Holidays of Pagans! The stores are filled
with “Easter Symbols” displaying new Easter outfits, plastic eggs, baskets,
candy, toys and other “must have items” to ensure that your child has the best
Easter.
I know some
people who do not allow their kids to go through their “Easter Baskets” until
they come back from church. That is good but let me ask you this…is your child’s
focus on the meaning of why they are in church or are they just anticipating
what they will get when it is over?
What good is any
of the material things if your children are unaware of what Y’shua sacrificed
for them? If they do not grasp and take hold of the GREATEST gift they will
EVER get, they will be lost forever.
We have to
answer to God for what we instill in our children and others. As for me and my
household we celebrate “Resurrection Sunday” instead of Easter. The focus is
and always will be Y’shua.
