Back To Our Source

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.
