"Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” (Matthew 28: 10).
In spite of the betrayals, the abandonment, Jesus calls His Apostles "My brothers." Our mission is to teach and proclaim everywhere that there is hope even for the worst sinners.
Today is April 2, Monday in the Octave (8 days) of Easter. Each of the 8 days following Easter is a solemnity. Easter is celebrated as feast for 50 days. Till Pentecost. The ways of God are mysterious. 40 days of Lent. 50 days of celebration after Lent.
"This is the day the LORD has made; let us be glad and rejoice in it." (Psalm 118: 24).
We Christians, the Redeemed have every reason to rejoice and be glad for the awesome gift of Easter. Let the joy of the Lord be our strength. (Nehemiah 8: 10).
