Day 32

               The coming Easter conjures up memories of new outfits, big bright hats for women, Easter egg hunts and meals shared with family and loved ones. I look at old family movies and the joy on all of our faces was clear, unmistakable. It wasn’t until later in my life did I truly understand the real significance of this annual rite of spring. All the assorted trappings of Easter have become entrenched in a world that would prefer to make more of Fat Tuesday than even Easter itself. This time of Lent should force us to reexamine who we are in light of what He did. Help us Lord to see through glitter of the Holiday to worship the creator of our Hope and Salvation. In His name we pray.
