Resurrection is real

Resurrection is all around us all the time.

It’s buds on the trees and flowers coming up through the soil every spring.

It’s the New Moon every month.

It’s the sun rising every morning.

We choose resurrection–practice it–daily in our lives.

When we get out of bed and go at it one more time.

When we give it–whatever it is–another try.

When we renew a relationship by reconciliation or reunion or both.

Did you ever think about how just the act of greeting your family at the bathroom sink or at the breakfast table in the morning is a little resurrection?

Resurrection is the pattern of nature.

Resurrection is the pattern of our lives.

Look for it. See it. Believe it.

Thank God for it.

And go live it again.
