The Resurrection
of Our Lord, Easter Day, is an exciting time for the Church.
We try to be at
our best for this central celebration.
Visitors and irregulars boost our attendance. The crowds are energizing!
Then the Sunday
after Easter happens. Where did
everybody go?
Certainly spring
breaks and vacations play into this.
But, still.
The first Easter
was even worse.
The disciples
were in disarray. The crowds didn’t know
what had happened. The event passed
relatively quickly and quietly.
And yet, it
happened. It happened for a fearful
uncomprehending people. It happened for
an indifferent consumerist people.
It happened for
us.
Lay down the burden of your sin and know Jesus. "Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest" Jesus said. Matthew 11:28
Every Sunday is
a little Easter. Keep celebrating!
Christ has
died! Christ Is Risen, for us all! Come to Him now and live.
