During Lent we spent a lot of time on self reflection and how we could draw closer to God. It is an important journey, but it isn't meant to end with the celebration of Easter. Easter should joyously catapult our journey toward heaven! Our eyes should be focused on our future. A future that is not bound to the time and space of this world. Christ has died so that our future will not. He has risen and now our futures contain possibilities that we haven't even imagined!
Jesus' resurrection changed the world forever! Sometimes we can take this for granted. Don't make the mistake of thinking of the "Good News" as just a good story. Immerse yourself in the "Good News" so that it is your reality and your future. God so loved you that he sent His Son to save you! The risen Lord is alive! If you don't see Him alive in your life today, readjust your focus because you are focusing on the wrong details. See and believe! Just like you can't see the forest through the trees, there is no Resurrection without the cross. It's time for us to pick up our crosses and lay them on our backs, so they don't block our vision. Let us proclaim to the world, "We, too, have seen the good Lord and we are heading home to live a life of Resurrection!"
