Afterthought

After reading one of my good friends' blogs this morning about the dating of Easter, I am reminded of the true meaning of the lenten season, and of Easter! To quote Reverend Cindy Watson:

Regardless of the date, Easter is pivotal in the life of the church. Easter is the promise of new life and hope in a world that is often filled with despair and death.

No matter the date, it is a joy for all Christians to celebrate Easter together. Our experience of resurrection is what helps us be the body of Christ in the world.

After reading this I am now filled with hope and joy, and will immerse myself in God's mysteries and promises, especially in the next 4 days! Thanks Cindy, I needed that!
