Mystery Easter Egger Strikes Again

Posted by In the"God's New Thing" category 0 Comments

At the end of his Easter message this morning, my great friend and pastor Edward Bess of Father’s House Church in Jones Creek, Texas shared a quick story of a mystery blessing bestowed upon his family after their return home from leading the church’s Good Friday online service.

It seems some awesome friend(s) stole away while the online service was in session and scattered the pastors’ front lawn with candy-filled plastic eggs for their three kids to hunt.

“We drove up, got out of the car and just happened to catch the eggs shining in the porchlight. What a blessing! Praise God!” he said.

So far, no one has come forward as the pastors’ mystery Easter Bunny.

Is “Mystery Easter Egging” now on track to become a new tradition, started on this most blessed — and most unusual — of Resurrection Sunday’s? Cheryl and I vote yes! (Our friends should beware. We might not wait for another Easter to come around before hitting some yards up ourselves!) Our egger got us good. We were most certainly at home during the “attack” today, and we have no clue who to blame, uh, thank.

And, we don’t know whether this is related, but my wife Cheryl and I got hit today, ourselves.

What a blessing it was to emerge from our backroom — fresh from Pastor Ed’s aformentioned message, in fact — to see these eggs scattered out our front window.

“We have eggs, too!” I shouted. And I don’t think I’ve been as excited about a Easter Hunt since at least 1978.

Thanks be to God, this is just reason #45,764 why I say, again, Easter 2020 is the best ever!

Lord, I LOVE your New Thing! It’s Go Time! And I’m ready!
