God Made Moms To Teach Their Children...How and Why Christians Celebrate Certain Holidays
This past Easter holiday was a battle for me after I learned the origins of the holiday we Christians celebrate and call Easter. I received an email about three weeks ago explaining how Easter and some of the ways we celebrated it came into existence. I am purposely not going to post the origins story of Easter or the email I received in hopes that you would go out and research the holiday for yourselves. As a Christian, I do recognize the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and the significance it plays in my life. It is because of HIS crucifixion and HIS resurrection that I am able to live today. But I do not plan on recognizing or celebrating Easter the way I have in the past. For over a year now, I've been on a journey seeking God's truth for those that believe in HIM and not what's just been past down over the years without any verification or confirmation. I prayed for a closer relationship with the Father and with the development of that closer relationship some wisdom has come and I pray it continues to come. Friends, me sharing my journey is not about proving anybody or any religious practice wrong,I just want to know that what I know is the truth -- HIS truth. Once I know and understand HIS truth, I am free to do what comes natural and to do what is forever pleasing in God's sight.
Be blessed and encouraged today, it's your choice. ~ Delphine
