The day after one of the most important Christian holidays. How do you feel? Have you celebrated Easter well? The day that as believers our relationship was made right with God. Are you thinking more about the left over chocolate sitting in your kitchen or the saving Grace that was given to you?
It is so easy for believers to get surprised by how fast the Holy holidays come and go. Satan wants us to be surprised. He wants us to get pulled into the busyness of life and forget about the impact His son made for us. I want to challenge you all to savor this holiday and the meaning that comes with it.
Currently, after a dietician visit, I am closely watching how many calories and carbs I intake. I have been doing this for about a month. I miss normal, yummy food so much. So, when I have a good week, I will partake of a ever so small sweet as a reward:) I have learned not to gobble down this treat like a hungry animal, but to savor this ever so small, luscious, smooth morsel of goodness. So much pleasure comes from this time.
This is the type of “savor” I want for Easter. I desire to spend time in thought about the purpose of Easter and how this impacts me. Today, don’t think the holiday is over, take time to remember it and thank God for it.
