¡Feliz Pascuas!
Easter is a religious festivity and everyone celebrates differently. In the USA and around the world, Easter tradition is the Christian celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ after Good Friday. Traditionally, children gather to hunt eggs. It is believed that the Easter Bunny is a rabbit-spirit and symbolizes fertility. USA Today stated, “Decorating eggs for Easter dates back to at least the 13th century, according to the History channel. Dying eggs red symbolized the blood of Christ.”

Nothing is as important as spending time with Me….. Do not seek Me primarily for what I can give you. Remember that I, the Giver, am infinitely greater than any gift I might impart to you.
