Some Sunday Honesty........

I have seen a lot of Easter blogging, read a lot of "He is Risen" and "Jesus is Alive" comments on facebook, twitter and all the usual spots. We went to Church this morning and yep, the service was nice. The pre-schooler who told me to close my eyes when the Minister was praying was a funny moment and then we went to Cherith's parents for dinner. I think what i am saying is that today was nice but right now i feel like i should be saying more on my blog about Easter, about Jesus having risen and about what that means to me. I have to be honest though and say that whilst i completely understand the importance of Easter and i believe with all iv got that Jesus is risen, i feel like i have never engaged with it in the way that perhaps i could or should, at least not this year anyway. Growing up it was an event at school and some days off on holiday. The Church i grew up in did nothing to corporately celebrate Easter besides some mild references to it in a "sermon." I do not blame this for any lack of connection i might have but it probably has not helped. So, I could have posted a whole big Easter sermon on here and that would have looked great but i decided to be honest instead. There is no conclusion to this post, except to say i am a work in progress and sometimes that sucks.................
