Easter.
Hope.
Full hearts, unlocked, allowed to flower and burst.
And these words for Easter, and every day, from “The Color Purple” by Alice Walker:
“Have you ever found God in church? I never did.
I just found a bunch of folks hoping for him to show.
Any God I ever felt in church I brought in with me. And I think all the other folks did too.
They come to church to share God, not find God.”
