We are a Resurrection people, and Alleluia is our song. Are you singing? How in your waking do you greet the day, and how are you a bearer of God’s amazing grace throughout the day, and how do you end the day well?
What might it mean to live as if each breath, each choice we make, and every encounter is infused with the Spirit? How would we go about washing the dishes, making our to do lists, tending our homes and communities? How might we interact with our children, our work colleagues, or the grocery store attendant?
The Paschal Mystery of Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection invites us to renewed being and life. God’s calling on our lives and our response is an ongoing process. Christ’s presence is never far, offering communion, forgiveness, and encouragement. We can never grasp the fullness of God’s love and mercy; we can only live in awe and gratitude and boldness of faith.
