We are in the Easter Season. A Season to rejoice and be glad because Jesus is Risen! The Easter joy continues to permeate our lives as we enter deeper into the mystery of Christ's resurrection. Without death, there is no resurrection and without resurrection, there is no joy. Easter joy is the answer to our suffering lives. New vigour and enthusiasm filled the early Christians, and the experience of the Risen Jesus continued to enthrall them, which must be ours as well. Even though we might not have witnessed the apparition of our Lord, we firmly believe from the lens of faith that Jesus is alive and active today and every day of our lives. Faith is a journey, and doubt is part of it. The liturgical readings of this day are a witness to this experience of the disciples of Jesus. The Resurrection of Jesus is not just an event of the past, but a living reality that continues to shape our faith and our response to life.
