Happy Easter to All !
Family reunions. Reconciliations. Spiritual renewals. Conversions. You may also include egg hunting, text messages, social media, parties and gatherings as among the momentous events and changes happening at this time to many among us who celebrate Easter.
These are blessings, as we may want to perceive them to be. They make us busy for, say, at least an entire week.
Of course, we have every reason to be happy and be joyful about Easter. Christ is Risen. A promise has been fulfilled and the blessings of redemption are upon us.
But human as we are, we constantly aspire, well, truthfully, material blessings. We want to look at Easter as an ocassion when, like New Year's day, we can look forward to a new life, or a new episode in our lives. A situation where our problems begin to fade away or resolve by themselves. An opportunity for our concerns to be addressed compeletely. A time to launch a new business, new products, new services, and be opened up to new opportunities or prospects for wealth creation.
Why not? After all, we are humans. But more, importantly we are children of God. He is Our Father. The Giver. The Perfect Provider. Surely, as we seek, we shall find and as we ask, we shall receive. Do not forget to knock that it may be opened to us.
So let as persevere in prayer, do not let up but always be reminded to surrender everything to God, who in His Mercy and Generosity, we shall not be abandoned.
