It was disturbing
to me that this year Easter was celebrated weeks before Passover. If any two holy days should be celebrated
together it is these two. They are the
crux of Judaism and Christianity.
Without these foundational events neither religion can stand. It is also the two events that join the two
faiths together. Christ is our Passover.
So much
significance is lost in our secular world today. The Source, the purpose of religion is all
but forgotten. There is no focus, no hub
to center on. Without a hub the wheel
cannot function. The spokes will go in
every direction, eventually dislodging themselves from the wheel rim
altogether, strewn all over the ground, useless. The same happens with people.
Will the people
who claim to believe in and follow God truly learn who God really is and who we
really are in Him? Will we as a people
ever stop trying to make God in our image, claiming Him for our own
desires? Will we as a people ever see
the majesty and glory of the God who loves us and submit to the life of Truth
and beauty He created us to live? In
that submission comes a peace that passes all understanding.
