Morning Rundown: How to Defend Against Satan’s Attacks

This year, after we prepared our Passover Seder table, I took a photo of the table and posted it on social media because I thought the table looked beautiful. It wasn’t until I started receiving comments on my post that I realized that there was an additional item that had been placed on the table.

My grandson had placed his yo-yo on the table and while I didn’t see it when I took the photo, it was clearly visible to those who saw the picture on my wall. When the first person posted a comment about liking the addition of the yo-yo to the table, instead of removing and replacing the photo, I commented back. “The yo-yo is symbolic of the ups and downs of the Israelites in the wilderness.” That comment was responded to by many people. This may now have to become a new tradition we add to our household Seder.

For those who may not celebrate Passover, every year we gather around our tables with our families, and through the traditions of the Passover Seder (what you might know as the Last Supper), we retell the story of the Exodus from Egypt and share how those same events were mirrored in the life, death and Resurrection of Yeshua. As we have the Seder meal, we eat matzah, drink wine, eat charoset (a mixture of apples, honey, raisins, dates, nuts and wine), eat horseradish and eat parsley dipped in salt water. As we eat each of these traditional foods, we use them to share the story.
