REJOICE! HE HAS RISEN AS HE SAID HE WOULD

The church bells and altar boys ring their handheld bells in celebration that our Lord Jesus Christ has risen…on the third day after His death, as He said He would.

Going back to the time over 2,000 years ago when this was not just a re-enactment, but the real thing, I can imagine that there were basically two large groups of people then who trembled:
1. Those who said, “Crucify Him” and put Him on the cross.
2. Those who believed every word He said.
Then, I ask myself, “Which of these two groups would I have been, if I was there at that time?”

Yesterday (Saturday, April 19th), I received a text message from Judith, a good friend of mine: …”I saw your post (1) on the group chat…I wanted to share that I saw Passion of Christ on Netflix and balled my eyes out”.

My reply to her was that “Easter is working on you”. She was touched…She was moved.

We rejoice that He has risen as He said He would. Alleluia!

Happy Easter to all Christians, the world over. May His love resonate in all with Peace, Joy and Happiness.
