"Since Jesus has raised from the grave, the tomb and death are no longer a place without hope, where the story ends with a complete failure, where man touches his extreme limits of his powerlessness, from the day when Christ was raised, the cross, which seems to be the sign of abandon, of loneliness, of failure, becomes a new beginning. From the depth of death brings the promise of eternal life. Lord, let us carry our crosses with love, our daily crosses, in the certainty that they are illuminated by the radiance of Easter." - Pope Benedict XVI
Something my pastor said today in mass that touches me very much: Easter is about life, it's about joy. It's about hope after death, it's about hope in the hopelessness when everything seems to come to an end. When there are struggles and failures, we have to remember there's always hope and His great love from God. Christ is risen, truly He is risen! ^_^
HAPPY EASTER!!! ^0^
