Passover and Easter

I am not here to pass judgment or how people celebrate this weekend; however, this one of the biggest weekends of the year in the life of a Jew or a Christian. You will find that I will not write much about this in my blog very often though I have to let people know that I am a Christian who loves Jews and Christians alike along with those who do not practice either one of them.

The Passover is important holiday that the Jews celebrate each year to remember the freedom and release of bondage from being ruled over by the Egyptians. Easter is important to the Christian because it celebrates Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection. He did so that people would have freedom and be released of bondage from sin.

You may wonder why I did not put in the word religion when I said holiday. I did so really on purpose because I do not like religion and neither does God. You may think that is odd to say or you could be angry about it as well. For the Jew and the Christian God is looking for a relationship not just a time where Jew or Gentile get together in a synagogue or a Church; whether you are celebrating The Passover or Easter relationship with his people is what God wants. I always feel bad when I start feeling what I call religious because I know that God wants a relationship with me. I won’t go further on this about religion because as I said in the beginning I do not want to offend anyone.

If you are neither a Jew nor Christian it does not change the fact that God loves you and wants to have a relationship with you. This is true even if you practice other so called religions or no religion at all. It may sound weird even if you are an atheist. Often God is put in a box by people in thought or deeds but he does not live in one. He is much larger than anyone of us know. Being either a Jew or Christian we have faith; however, we do not have the answer to everything especially in concern to God.

So all I want to say in conclusion is to seek God with all your heart. I want you to find him. There is more to the story so I pray that his love will cover you and change you. This is what The Passover and Easter are both all about. Enjoy the rest of your wonderful weekend.
