Easter Blessing

 

Alleluia! Happy Easter!

A friend shared this reflction with me and I found it perfect for the celebration of Easter. 

Today, we stand before the silence of the tomb of our Savior, Jesus. A profound silence, which invites us to enter into ourselves and question ourselves. 

What have I offered of myself out of love for others?

To what path of peace and justice is Christ calling me today?

What is it that holds back my confidence in following Jesus without fear?

From that silent tomb, a light emerges, a joy that nothing, not even the power of men, can extinguish. This Easter light illuminates the darkness of our lives.

May it illuminate you, wherever you feel closed in...

May it become a source of strength, peace, and confidence, so that you can accomplish what Christ is calling you to do today.
