When I was young I really enjoyed a good Easter Service with all the music and pagentry. But as I have grown older I go down to the water and watch the sunrise, maybe spontaneously bursting into song.
On Easter morning the rising of the sun reminds me that God is always present, even if I don’t always see. It also reminds me of the risen son of God. Easter then becomes a celebration of light overcoming darkness, life overcoming death and love overcoming fear. Light, life, love. It really is that simple. But humans have to complicate everything don’t we?
This Resurrection Sunday I hope you have a chance to know the presence of God as you watch the sunrise, reflect on the risen son and remember light, life, and love. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world,” but he also said, “you are the light of the world.” Don’t forget to let your light shine.
