Eggs and Easter ? How is that related. I was skeptical at first So I did some reading online. Here is what I understand, Eggs signify rebirth and new creation. The egg itself became a symbol of the Resurrection. Just as Jesus rose from the tomb, the egg symbolized new life emerging from the eggshell. We are a new creation in Christ Jesus.

Make Deviled Eggs
I dislike the term, but I adore the concept of creating eggs resembling little chicks. The cooked yolk is combined with mayonnaise and child-friendly seasonings, then piped back into the egg whites. A tiny carrot piece serves as the nose, while black olives.
Wishing you a blessed Easter. May we continue to let His light shine through us.
