Happy Easter! Christ is risen!
I am taking a short moment tonight to wish you all Happy Easter and a blessed year - blessed by the Holy Light of the One Who defied Death tonight. In the morning say a little prayer of joy…
God, make me myrtle and burn me on your altars!
Drink a sip of holy water and taste the body of Christ. Keep your candles burning and let the light shine in your hearts, purifying your souls, lighting the path for a better future, for peace and prosperity for us all.
The Resurrection Mass in Orthodox countries has its most amazing moment at midnight, when the streets are flooded with light: a sea of holy light. People walk home with lit candles, hoping to preserve that light till they arrive home, for the light brings peace, health and prosperity the whole year. Superstitions say that if the light goes off, bad luck will follow.
Images like this are rare, and yet… the more you behold them, the more that you see: power and unity embraced by the Holy Spirit. Today…
Christ is risen!
Repeat after me: Christ is risen! Hristos a inviat!
Now take some time to think what this means: He kept His promise. Our sins are forgiven. The Father, in His holy goodness sacrificed His own son for our redemption. We celebrate life. It’s time for new beginnings.
Happy Easter! Paste fericit!
Christ is risen! Hristos a inviat!
He is truly risen! Adevarat a inviat!
