Good Friday and we are in the depth of Easter. For some its been a 'full on' Easter journey of services, remembering and engaging in foot washing and the Last Supper of the Pascal Mass and reaffirmation of vows and today brought the remembrance of that grim Friday when Christ was crucified in what must have been the most horrible of deaths possible. I think this death is the greatest example of 'tough love!' May we, in the quiet of this day catch a glimpse of this suffering, this sacrifice, that enables us to live. May we do this 'living' well. A living that leads to eternal living. A prayer in my morning prayers that draws me to our way of living. " Lord teach me to pray: Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful people and kindle in them the fire of your love. '
May the death and resurrection of Christ continue to live through us in word and action.
Have a Holy and blessed Easter
