The Easter

We enter into the Easter season.  One thing I personally do is watch the movie ‘The Passion’ prior to Sunday.  It causes me to reflect once again about the enormity of Jesus’ sacrifice.  Whilst we know what happens on day three, the first followers thought ‘The Way’ had come to an end.  I wonder how I would have coped in reality?  Definitely not like Judas, hopefully not like Peter.  I guess I would have scattered like the others.

Then on day three… what an amazing reality of truth that brought all that Jesus had said to fruition.  What passion must have surged through each of the eleven and those who followed Jesus… What he said really was true and it all makes sense now.

As you enter this time of reflection remember that we all go through the same realities in life that the disciples experienced, but may we remember most the surge of passion for our Lord on day three as we bring the message of amazing grace to those we work and live with.
