The Hunt for Christ
When you’re young:
It’s about the sweets—
The chocolate, the candy,
Easter eggs, chocolate bunnies.
The thrill of the hunt
And the treasures inside.
When you’re older:
It’s just another day
To sit and attend church.
Shopping for candy, visiting relatives,
Cleaning and cooking—it’s just a checklist.
You hunt for a reason to even be excited.
When you’re dying:
You reflect back on the resurrection.
Salvation from the cross,
The love of our Savior.
You know there is life after death.
The hunt for Christ has been satisfied.
