Easter is for Christians the “great re-set”. It is a time of tension between the cross and the empty tomb. It is a time of mourning and a time of celebration. It is the place and time when Christians believe that God completely re set the way of the world through breaking the power and fear that death holds over humanity, and making us a resurrection people. A people who believe that death in the light of Jesus resurrection has been transformed. It is ultimately a time of healing. I hope and pray that in this time – between the wisdom of Ecclesiastes and the place of Easter - that as churches we will know that Easter message, proclaim the greatness of the empty tomb and take the time to know the healing power and might of Jesus Christ who conquered the grave in God’s name. Revd Lizzie The Way by Nigel Beeton Come, still your hearts, let troubles go For you believe in Me, And I am with you, I will show The way ahead of thee. My Father’s house has many rooms You know my words are so! My Spirit and my Word illumes The way that you shall go. I am the Way, the Truth, the Life Believe and you shall see The way through tempest and through strife To My eternity. 6
