Just a Quick Note



I was afraid this was going to happen.  I do not have time for a regular update today!!  Booo!  But I will try tomorrow, still can't make promises though.  We are preparing for Seder Passover over here.  My kitchen is a mess.  My hands are still covered in some kind of gritty sugar/flour paste.  I still have a butch of vegetables to chop up and I have been holding off going to the bathroom for the past 20 minutes at least.  I am so excited!  I love Passover.  I have mixed feelings about celebrating it as a Christian.  It would be more appropriate to observe it with a Jewish family in context because Jesus' Passover would not have been "exactly" like the one we observe.  But so many of the rituals point to Christ it is hard to feel like I should be bound by certain rules for celebrating it.  I don't know if what we do offends Jews or belittles communion.  I don't "feel"  bad but I would like to be respectful of this ceremony.  It would be fun to go to a Jewish Passover Seder or one in Israel.  Any way I am so busy and can't wait to update on Holy Week.  Have a Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday especially if I am not able to update till next week.
