Happy (belated) Easter

Well that's over. The Holy week is over as is the season. I gave up soda for lent. It was hard, well towards the end it was, I could taste the sweet cherry flavor of my fave cherry Coke. I did manage to teach the child the story of Easter and the last week of Jesus' life. The preachers jaw dropped when my 4.5 year old knew the answers to her Easter questions. Proud papa moment.

Faith is an interesting thing. Faith of a child is needed most times. Our old pastor has this in spades. She does many things without planning or any follow through afterward, faith of a child. She just thinks the stuff will happen. It varies from ordering Easter flowers to shipping hand made dresses to 3rd world countries. The ladies of the church pick up the slack and things get done. I often wonder, is that God working or just lazy and stressed people working to make one functioning person? 

As I get older I think I see things happen and just know that was Gods work. Then times I'm like what's going here? How can this stuff happen? I wonder if the new Pope gets interviewed and asked stuff like that. "Cardinal Smith tell me 3 ways you've seen God work and 2 ways that have made you go huh?" Catholic is the basis of the Christian church. We all have oaths and other mantras that mention them in most denominations. This pope thing was big stuff. Well my 1 Catholic friend told me it was. Either Rome or Israel own all the cool bible stuff and on each big holiday they parade them around. Jesus' burial shroud was in Rome on Good Friday (I think that was the day). I'm sure the Jews have the Arc of the covenant and make every Nazi war criminal glare into it at some point. Indiana Jones reference hope you get it.

So whats the point of all this? I have none. To read my blog requires faith like a child. What will this weirdo say next, how is his body trying to kill him now, what cool rock song will he show this time. Who knows? 
Peace and Love,
