God Frees and Redeems
Celebrate Passover Liberation
Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5)
Leviticus 23:4-8 The Message4 "These are the appointed feasts of God, the sacred assemblies which you are to announce at times set for them: 5 "God's Passover, beginning at sundown on the fourteenth day of the first month. 6-8 "God's Feast of Unraised Bread, on the fifteenth day of this same month. You are to eat unraised bread for seven days. Hold a sacred assembly on the first day; don't do regular work. Offer Fire-Gifts to God for seven days. On the seventh day, hold a sacred assembly; don't do any regular work." For ReflectionCelebrations are communal events. Whether it is a birthday, marriage, or a religious event, celebrating draws us together. We recall the common origin and experience of the people. They keep alive the story of what God had done on our behalf. For the Hebrews, Passover is a reminder of the mercy and compassion of God. In the confrontation between the god Pharaoh and the God, creator. The Passover meal is essential to Christians because the Lord's Supper was a Passover meal. Jesus passed the bread and wine to the disciples, telling them that it was his body and they should eat it. Jesus presented himself as the Passover lamb in symbolic remembrance of the Crucifixion.
We Christians are now in a lengthy celebration of the remembrance of the death and resurrection of Christ. We fast and reflect on the mystery of our risen Lord to remind us of God's intention for us to live self-sacrificial lives. PrayPray and let the Holy Spirit guide your life. Pray and remember the Passion. Pray and dedicate yourself to the will of God. Pray amen, Father; I place my life in your hands.
