It is Easter… Resurrection Sunday & for some of us that means the rituals
of Easter Bunny cards, chocolate filled colourful baskets, & the
traditional Easter egg hunt with Grandpa & Grandma watching either in
person or via Zoom. While for others it means an early morning rise to
dress & prepare before going to or watching on screen the Sunday morning
church service followed by the preparations of Easter Sunday dinner & the
giving of thanks for Jesus’s resurrection from the dead. Of course, there
could always be a mix of all those rituals & traditions together, too.
For me, I arose early in bed & started the day by reading the resurrection
accounts in each of the four gospels. It is intriguing to see the distinct
differences in how even the first witnesses to Jesus’ resurrection remember
the events perhaps in different perspectives.
