Easter or commercialism.
As I brought Easter goodies today. I could not help but think yet another money making holiday. I use to get a chocolate Easter egg every Easter and my mum would faithfully buy us each a card. Yet here in the states it is dresses and egg hunts and ornaments and more. It is as though Easter and the meaning has gone. No remembering that Christ died more remembering if you looked better than the kid next to you or got more goodies than them. I will have to say I remember clearly the best Easter egg that I loved it was done like a clock and so I got twelve small eggs each which pointed to a number on the clock and a big one in the middle I believe. So I was pulled into all the wonderful chocolate, while Christ did nothing to deserve this death. Shame on us.
My challenge is for you to think what do you do at Easter do you egg hunt or do you search your heart and consider what you should die to.
Please have a cup of tea with me today.
