Bow Ties and Believing

When holidays roll around, we all think about the traditions and fun times that are associated. For Easter, I get excited about getting on my nice khakis, a crisp, white dress shirt, a paisley bow tie, and a nice blue sport coat. Why do we focus on these things during these amazing holiday seasons?? The Son of GOD died on a CROSS for us and we're worried about buying a new bow tie or sun dress! Sure, I'm just as guilty as the next guy so we all need to get our priorites in order and realize that God doesn't care what we're wearing on Easter Sunday. All He cares about is that His Son died on a cross two thousands years ago to save OUR lives and take away our sins. And guess what?? We should be doing the same thing. We should be reflecting on what Easter is all about. We should be thinking about the pain and suffering that Jesus went through. We should be thinking about the glorious ressurection of our Jesus Christ. He did it for us, guys. For each and every one of us. We are no longer burdened by sin because our Savior, our EVERYTHING died to set us free. THAT is the real Easter. Think about it.
