Egg Hunt or God Hunt???

What would happen if you gave a child an empty Easter egg?
There would be no hiding from that child, that is for sure.
You find Easter eggs for the prize inside, right?
Is that the most I have to teach my son about Easter? It's about getting candy out of an egg?
 
That morning when they went to Christ's tomb and found it empty- that was our prize!
Granted, it is hard for me to get my four year old to realize that an empty egg is a good thing.
How can we teach them?! Is it by making the hype all about the eggs and candy?
Integration, lol. Things were originally created as ways to share God. Now what have they become? Ways to spend money and neglect God. We have to get back to integrating God into our lives. Isn't that what Sunday is about? An empty tomb that showed us God has not neglected us. An empty tomb that promises he will always be integrated in our lives.

Are we hunting eggs or God?
