From the CYM
During Lent, we are invited to take a long, hard look at our mess, at our broken selves. We are called to make tweaks with the hope that the 40 days will lead to real and lasting transformation. But on Easter we have a new mission. We are invited to look beyond the mess. We unearth our "alleluias." We fill the starkness with flowers and pretty pastels and chocolate bunny rabbits. The darkness of the tomb is filled with radiant light. Too often we get stuck in the Lent to notice the Easter all around us. But we are an Easter people. We're not Lenten people; Lent isn't what defines us. It's supposed to change us, yes, but, because of Christ nailed to a cross and made gloriously new in the resurrection, we are Easter people at our very core. We should always have "alleluia" on the tip of our tongue. It's easy to be Easter people on the day itself. It's just as easy to forget, though, that the Easter feasting lasts 50 days liturgically. And how many of us really remember that we're an Easter people all day, every day? Hope abounds. It is not a hope based on a superficial optimism that is blind to the reality of suffering in the world. Rather, it is a deep trust in God and His love for us. This is not a season for despair, worry, or even grumpiness. Easter calls us to embrace the freedom from fear, and to hold onto the life, the peace, and the joy that Jesus died to give all of us. Life has its ups and downs. Life is unpredictable. There is plenty of discord. Yet, Easter season is a good reminder for us that the only one who can rob us from the joy that comes with being a Christian is ourselves. We are sure to lose much in life. We lose jobs, loved ones, financial security, freedoms, good health, confidence in our future happiness and in the path of our life. Then there is God. He remains. He does not shift with the wind or with our woes. He is forever. Love is forever. No one can take that away from us. We need to bury our doubts and yes, our vision of having a perfect life, and let God and love live amidst the chaos. "We can say 'Alleluia' again!" That's what Jesus gave us on that first Easter: A reason to shout, "Alleluia!" a reason to hope.
