"He has risen, he is not here... he is going before you..." Mark 16
"The dynamism of the Easter mystery is at the heart of our Christian faith.
True encounter with Christ liberates something in us,
a power that we did not know we had, a hope, a capacity for life, resilience,
an ability to bounce back when we thought we were completely defeated,
a capacity to grow and change,a power of creative transformation...
the dynamism of Love.
Love comes out of God and gathers us to Godin order to
to pour itself back into God through all of us...
we all become doors and windows through which God shines..."
May this Easter season deepen our awareness ofGod's Love
alive in ourselves, our loved onesand all those whom we encounter.
May we be attentiveto that Loveand choose to allow it
to transformour attitudes, our actions, our world.
(Thomas Merton)
Wishing you a Joyful, Hopeful Easter -
