Easter

One word dances off the tip of our tongues...
Alleluia!
One word fills the air and delights the heart...
Alleluia!
One word contains more in its eight letters than eight thousand sermons.
Alleluia!

We cannot confine our joy, hope, laughter...
If anyone were to walk past...they might think we are filled with new wine.
If anyone were to ask for reasons or rationale...we would grasp for words.
We cannot justify or codify or prove.
We can simply embrace and be embraced by a mystery that is found in one word.
Alleluia.

May the joy of this Easter fill your life with a peace that surpasses understanding.
May the promise of this Easter linger.
Let Easter be more than a day...let it be a verb that takes hold of your thoughts,
actions,
hopes,
dreams,
your whole being.
With a truth we know as,
Alleluia.
