Easter is About Victory -- the Glory of Being Human!

Easter raises lots of questions. Did "IT" really happen? What difference does it make if it did? And who cares? And there are personal questions. Does my life amount to anything? Why did he/she have to die? I wonder if she/he really loves me? Where are we all heading?

There’s a Rabbinic story about what sort of questions we might have to face at the Last Judgment: "Were you honest in business? Did you keep the commandments? etc. But the real question: "Did you hope for the Messiah?"

So the Easter question for each of us is: How alive is hope in you? What's holding you back? What's holding you prisoner? Is there a dead thing inside you infecting your hoping? Do you feel numb inside because of some fear or obsession? Have you lost touch with your glory?

Easter is about victory!
