This week we celebrate Holy Week- the week where Jesus entered into a series of events that would ultimately end with His death on a cross and on Easter Sunday, an empty tomb. A friend and I were talking about how commercial Easter has become. “Easter Bunny” this and “Cadbury Egg” that. Don’t get me wrong, I like rabbits and candy as much as the next guy, but this is not what this week is about. It’s about Jesus, the Lamb of God who gave his life as a final sacrifice for you and for me.
If you are a parent reading this remember your place in raising your children is to know the Lord- because the world will paint a picture of irrelevance, but we are called to paint a picture of Truth. This will mean sitting down with your kids and asking them about their walk with Jesus, and perhaps, coming face to face with your own. These are critical times and the world is listening. Will this just be another Easter that comes and goes or will you get on your knees before your King in humble witness to all He has done in your life? How we respond to Easter is how we will respond to the world. So what will it mean to you?
In the name of Jesus may it be so!
