Christ is risen! Indeed he is risen!

Christ is risen! Indeed he is risen!

On this feast of feasts, I pray that each of us would experience the grace and truth that have come into the world through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Christ’s Resurrection is God’s victory over death, and hence over all the forces of corruption, entropy, bleakness, and emptiness. Now all is filled with light! Hopelessness, despair, resignation, nihilism: all of these are shattered forever. God is with us, and his love is stronger than death. Surely it is stronger, then, than any other passing sorrow or oppression that intrudes upon our lives. Finding our joy in the Resurrection, we found our happiness upon a radiant reality that nothing in this world can quench or dim.

Christ is risen! Indeed he is risen!
