It's Holy Week for many Christians around the world. And, for those that celebrate, worship and honor the risen Lord I pray that His glory will shine brightly on you this week and beyond.
Easter was always a special time for our family growing up. Of course, as a kid and waking up to all the surprises of our Easter baskets was a thrill, but then getting dressed up for church and then going to my grandma and grandpa's house for Easter dinner and an egg hunt was tradition. I hold those memories close to my heart because it's never quite the same as it was back then. Even though now my aunt (the youngest of 5 of those particular grandparents), hosts an Easter egg hunt for us all...the little kids and the adults. Yes, an egg hunt for the adults! I've mentioned this in previous years, but she does and egg hunt for the adult kids that include prizes, mainly gift cards to some pretty good places. And yes, there is also a golden egg that contains the grand prize! It's definitely become a fun and great tradition!
So, as we gear up for egg hunts, Easter service and good meals around the world, lets not forget why we are celebrating. Our King has risen and he has come to save the world! Let us rejoice and sing Hosanna!
May your Holy week be blessed full of love, rebirth, grace and mercy!!
