Easter is all about the resurrection.
Jesus died. He came to life after three days.
A long time ago Easter was celebrated once a week. Believers got together and they were excited to sing and praise God and study Scripture. After all, all the prophecies were true! Jesus really was the Messiah.
So, Easter has changed a little bit. Right?
It’s once a year. It’s still considered a religious holiday, kind of, if you count eating marshmellow peeps and rabbit-shaped Reeses candy as religious.
Not that I have anything against candy. (I love Heath bars and Watermelon gum is my go-to breah freshener.) But I wonder if the early believers had it right. It was something they did often, and it was a celebration of the best kind.
As Easter approaches, I want to step back and make it more than a once-a-year holiday. I’d love to celebrate today, letting Christ know that I’m so thankful for being his… and then do it again tomorrow, and the next day.
How do you celebrate Easter?
