HE IS RISEN!
Easter Morning. A simple quiet morning. Jesus Resurrection brought friends together again and he reminded them to remember the importance of the small and ordinary things in our lives.
CHRIST RISES AND DIES NO MORE
Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? Therefore we have been buried with him by baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in the newness of life.
For if we have been United with him in a death like his, we will certainly be United with him in a resurrection like his. We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be destroyed, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin. For whoever has died is free from sin. But if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
PRAYER
My God of never ending Light, thank you for the bright light of our sky. We are certain that in you there is no darkness. I pray that your eternal flame of hope will renew me and help me to serve you and undergird my actions by giving and receiving your love and your blessed mercy. This EASTER Day I observe celebration and rest, with my prayers of thanksgiving.
I now spend some symbolic moments by candlelight to honor you, “Christ you are my Light.”
