It feels like a pre-celebration.
Christ is Risen!
It doesn’t feel right when we are apart.
Christ is Risen!
It feels like a meaningless ritual.
Christ is Risen!
It feels too soon. Our worries are great and we’re still sheltering in place.
Christ is Risen!
[A moment of silence.]
And yet…our hope is assured. Life and love have survived the vilest torture and hate.
Christ is Risen!
Though the struggles of living are real, God’s love overcomes. God’s love has overcome! Christ is Risen!
Christ is Risen indeed! Alleluia!
