This was a difficult one to write about, hence the procrastination.
What I do take away here is that Adam and Eve had it good. Few rules. Lots of goodness.
Then there was the disobedience. Sin.
Then the rules. Lots of them.
Clean this, clean that, eat this, don't eat that, give this but not that...
Lots of rules for the people to make sure they were clean and pure to be able to access God.
Then there is the cross.
God gave us his son so that he would be the perfect sacrifice. No more laws or rituals and complete access to him any time no matter how dirty our lives are.
I am so thankful today that I can come to Jesus looking like Pigpen from the Peanuts and he loves me just as much as he does Frieda, the girl with naturally curly hair.
Enjoy the beauty that Easter is. I pray that you have a wonderful day surrounded by the ones you love. Remember that we are so blessed to freely worship. Be in prayer for those elsewhere who are not.
Have a wonderful weekend!
