What did the preschoolers at your church do today? I saw kids shaking rhythm instruments, clapping to music, singing in the kids' choir and especially having fun waving palm branches! (Well, actually tickling each other with palm branches!) Excitement just builds and grows this time of the year. Kids are going on vacation, camping trips, enjoying Easter Egg hunts, even visiting the Easter Bunny at the mall.
Do you worry that the message of what Jesus did at Easter gets lost in all the excitement? I do, because it seems that the words about Jesus' love, and the people praising Him aren't even heard. But in all the playing and talking (did anybody listen today????) I know that the foundation is being built, one bit of awareness at a time. And at such a joyful time of year, where else would we want to be but with God's family, in His house, celebrating His love for us!

It is easy to spend more time filling eggs with chocolate than filling hearts with Christ. I'm as guilty as any of sidelining Jesus in the name of Jesus.
