Today is the day when the banners are flying, at least figuratively, over every Easter Sunday congregation throughout the world. Today is the celebration day for the Christian Community.
What is it we celebrate? Well, everyone knows, of course: God has raised Jesus Christ from the dead. It is an historical happening. It is an Event that has made all the difference for us, ever since it happened. It is, among other things, the sign, as well as the means by which God communicates to us the Resurrection Power of His Love: that He is a God who is always acting to bring new life; that out of our brokenness, He brings wholeness; that out of our despair, He brings hope; that out of our death, He brings new life. This is the way God is always acting, and once you get a firm grasp of that reality, down at the center of your being, your life will never again be the same.
