Happy Easter


 Well in our house we have done the Easter egg Hunting...a family tradition to do that on Friday...and we hold a pretty good hunt in our garden.....
We eat with our families over the days....

We enjoy the extra days off

We certainly eat our fair amount of Chocolate

We also spend a bit more time at our church......this is an important time in our faith calender.....the faith that I was bought up in and now we our children....the time of the year to reflect on our faith and the gift of Jesus giving up his life for us....

Our faith that has been tested many times over the years......the one that we can lean back into....that will always catch us when we find it all too hard....

The one that we share with those who wish to know.....

Easter is a big one for those who don't usually get to church...they come...reconnect with others, with Jesus....find out first hand what a faith can mean to them...

Yes we celebrate with the eggs and hot cross buns.....but we also acknowledge that we are not perfect and the gift of Jesus dying on the cross is enough to assure us of more.

So if you haven't been to church in a while...or ever....maybe you can find one for tomorrow...go check it out....go check out the people...the community....the faith that they profess....

Happy Easter

  1. Yes, we folk are not perfect but loveable nonetheless. Fresh starts that at their dry beginnings are doomed, but does not matter. I'm not Christian but I certainly admire the teachings of Jesus. He thought we were all worth it. Pretty awesome stuff.

    Wishing you a lovely Easter.

  2. I admire anyone that celebrates these significant dates for the "real" reason.
    I grew up in a Christian home … but haven't been to church in many years now. But Easter and Christmas always get me thinking.
