Here Comes Peter Cottontail
Have you noticed Cadbury's annual Easter Rabbit commercial?
They're advertising a chocolate egg by showing a live rabbit 'hatch' a
batch of gaily decorated Easter Eggs.
It seems ridiculous, not to mention far-fetched, to think of a rabbit
that can lay eggs. And yet, this somehow captures the essence of our
confusion over this wonderful, mysterious, growth -producing time
we call "Easter".
A rabbit laying eggs seems not unlike a dead man who lives!
But before we can really experience what Easter is all about, it
seems we must also journey through what Christians call "Lent".
This is the struggle and challenge part, without which we could never
know the peace of triumph.
Many families start their spiritual journeys by celebrating 'Pancake
Tuesday'. It's an old custom that began with a feast of delicacies, con-
sumed in large quantities, all in anticipation of 40 days of 'fasting'.
My own family has a tradition of coming together on Shrove Tues-
day and mixing up a large batch of 'basic mix'. Then as the individual
pancakes are being cooked, each child selects an ingredient to be
added. The variety ranges from fruits and nuts, to chocolate chips
and Smarties! All in good fun.
Somehow the feasting and sharing in special beats is all done with
the knowledge that 'all good things come to an end.'
It is the 40 days of Lent that we find ourselves struggling with iVhat
can only be called our 'wilderness experiences.'
Life is made up of both triumphs and losses, celebrations and sor-
rows. We really cannot anticipate sharing in good times without ever
having to live through the bad times.
For forty days (plus Sundays) Christians make their annual pilgrim-
age to the cross and then the empty tomb. Lent is a period designed
to sharpen one's spiritual sensitivities and lead people into a deeper
relationship with their God.
Let's look at this word - Lent.
L - Let down your guard. We often wear many faces in an effort
to shield and protect ourselves from hurt. Psychologist Sydney Si-
mon, speaking on the healing power of forgiveness, tells us we try to
hide our hurts and disappointments or we pretend that these things
don't really matter. All is well!
og, effered fully and; abundantly to each of us, is
fu 3trOIVYS;11%000 Op our .t pe )'eeliog& k(lib9 honest,atpout,our-
selves. urneytng in faith through Lent suggests that we allow our-
selves to be vulnerable and be willing to risk.
E - Embrace change. Part of living in faith is being open to doing
things in a different way.
I know a man, in his late eighties whose enthusiasm is contagious.
He wholeheartedly embraces all of the latest technological changes
our world offers. Stereos are fine but CD's are 'state-of-the-art'!
'Computer Talk' is language he's only too eager to learn.
Our world is filled with marvelous new creations each day. Our
faith asks from us the willingness to take a fresh or unusual method
of opeMing. Embrace the changes of your world with eagemess.
N - Nurture your dreams. Every successful business person has a
'tail -of -woes' to share. Success seems to be the story of how one
overcame adversity. No matter what we set out to do in life, all of us
will ,•gurney through what can only be called 'the wilderness'.
When you are in the midst of disappointment or crisis, use your
faith to nurture the dreams you have yet to achieve.
T - Team up with others. Our world seems at the peak of what
might be described as selfish independence. We have so glorified our
individuality it seems we have lost sight of our need for one another.
Somehow, our faith challenges us to come together as the People
of God. It is by integrating all of our efforts into a thrust filled with
God's power we become an active force for change in our world.
