Thank You Easter Bunny and Santa

As I grow in Christ I become more frustrated at how commercialism takes away from our holidays that celebrate the core foundation of our faith. Christmas is about God humbling himself and becoming a child. God in flesh dwelling among us. Easter is even better! God made away through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ that we could be reconciled back to him and have a personal relationship with our creator for eternity.

But this week as I looked around at all the Easter advertisements for candy, clothes and bunny appearances I had to be thankful. In our country it is becoming more difficult to keep God in our lives as many are trying to remove God from every aspect of our lives. School, government, public areas and more. But think about this. Interestingly enough the greed and love of money in this country is preserving our holidays. What do you think would happen if an effort was made to totally ban Easter and Christmas? Every retailer in the country would go ballistic.

Now, they will and are trying to remove God from those holidays but the fact remains that the holidays will continue to be a part of our culture and that's a good thing.
