I am sitting at my window looking out at a beautiful sunny day on this glorious Easter Sunday. It is really cold outside but as long as it is sunny, that always makes me feel good. I have bought far too much chocolate and the lamb is probably far too big for us, but isn’t it joyful to celebrate this momentous day. Apart from Christmas, this is the only time we can have a guilt free feast and worry about eating more healthily another time.
I do hope you are also enjoying your Easter Sunday and are managing to meet up with family in these difficult times. A lot of people will be eating outside which isn’t too great on such a cold day, but the feeling of being together will hopefully bring the extra warmth they need. My youngest son is able to join us and I haven’t seen him since Christmas and am delighted he can come.
Aren’t we blessed that we have Our Lord’s resurrection to celebrate. We can be joyful even in the most difficult times because we are the ‘Easter People’ (St. Augustine) and we have faith in an eternal life. No matter what our troubles are, we can look to God and know that he is there, waiting for us, and until we are with him again in heaven, he will see us through whatever we have confronting us.
Do have a very joyful, blessed day and focus on all that is good in your life,
God bless,
