It doesn’t really matter what religion we are; it is the symbolism surrounding this holy time that is sacred and all-important. The Resurrection shows us that even from the darkest hour can come renewal and perhaps miracles.
Easter is a time of love, family, and peace. It is a time when we say a quiet “thanks” for all that we have and for all that the future holds.
Easter is a feeling in our hearts of hope, faith, and trust. It is a day of miracles, a time of retrospection for what has been, a celebration of what is, and anticipation of all that will be.
May we each move into a moment of stillness within our hearts as we consider the invitation that this season offers us. We are invited to embrace each other with forgiveness and unconditional love.
During this season of Forgiveness, be powerful enough to become peaceful and quiet. Be powerful enough to affirm that there is one presence, one power in your midst that is helping you and guiding you. Your connection to Spirit is your one and only source.
We see in the story of Jesus the ultimate sacrifice for love. As we each take a moment to go within, may we ask our hearts the question: “What am I willing to do for those that I love?” In every interaction, in every relationship, may we stop to consider: “What would Love do now?”
We are called to remember—He changed our lives with His Power, His Presence, His Love. And He said to us: “You can do all this and more.”
Let the celebration of Resurrection, Rebirth, and Renewal carry us each day in Peace–in Joy–In Love.
