Fairy tales are just that, they are make believe stories. We may say that they aren't real, they typically have a lesson to be learned, and they are supposed to change or inform us about how we live in the real world. The magic only goes as far as the last page of the story. Wistful child-like wishes for dragons, knights, evil villains being defeated, and happily ever afters don't really exist. That's often how we think about fairy tales. They are escapist fantasies that distract us from real life. The truth is, the Gospel is a fairy tale that has come true! It is the too good to be true, yet very true news that Jesus has risen from the dead! He has broke into our world, slayed the evil dragon that is death and has made the fantastical come to life! We know that even though we may die, we will live! This world and our lives have been infused with whimsical magic, not from a wizard or an enchanted sword, but from the too good to be true news, that Jesus is alive, death is defeated, and you and I will have our happy ending.
