"Sing praises to the Lord, O you his faithful ones, and give thanks to his holy name. For his anger is but for a moment; his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may linger for the night, but joy comes with the morning." - Psalm 30:4-5
Eastertide: As early as the second century AD, Easter for the Christian
Church extended forward into a “most joyful season” of fifty days leading
into Pentecost. Known as “Eastertide”, it was a season of hope and
celebration in which Christians began to get a foretaste of the heavenly
banquet awaiting them. It was an appropriate time to spread the Good
News of Christ’s resurrection and celebration. The heart of the Christian
calendar rests squarely on Easter. The celebration of Eastertide allows us to
see our Christian life from the other side of Easter and encourages us to live
our lives in Christ’s victory, hope, and power. It invites us to feel the
exhilaration of his disciples after realizing he was alive!
Scripture Reference: John 21:1-19
