Happy Resurrection Sunday!!!
I remember Sundays, way back when I was about 12 years old, and an active PK (preacher’s kid). It was my opportunity to get dressed “to the nines.” I played handball, punch ball and touch football most of the week, and dressed accordingly…some say I was a “tomboy.” But Sundays was my dress-up day. And the best Sunday for dressing up was Easter Sunday. It was a supernova opportunity for me to blast into my most Dorothy-esque self. For those of you who don’t know…Dorothy was my mother, one of the early fashion models of known African descent.
Easter Sunday means so much more to the super-senior me. That’s of the benefits of aging, my growing insights, and evolving understanding of life’s purpose. I still want to be Dorothy-esque, but now its not the glamorous model I aspire to be, but her as a role model for straight up love for her children, her friends and family, and her God.
Easter, or rather, Resurrection Sunday is when I call on love the most.
What is Resurrection Sunday if not a recognition of God the Father’s love. Thank you Father for sacrificing your son for our salvation, and raising Him up so we could be assured of our place in Eternity.
Love and realness,
