Over the past several years, I’ve had memorable Easter’s. There have been a variety of factors, from The Passion of the Christ opening, to ministry involvement, to simple worship. This year I am realizing I’ve spiritually prepared very little for the celebration of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection. And that’s disappointing.

Work and life have been busy. Short-term and long-term planning have clouded my focus and distracted me from the heart preparation I need. Such is life. And I don’t have a super-deep lesson to share, only the hope that the worship I can offer and participate in this weekend will be worthy of my King.

It is time to ‘Be still and know I am God’ even in the hustle and bustle of life because Easter is coming.

“I dare say you will think it a very easy thing to stand still but it is one of the postures a Christian soldier learns not without years of teaching.” – Spurgeon
