Yes, the good news is that we have been Eastered! And, we are called not only to proclaim God’s love, a love we have seen and known in Jesus, but to also act on it by feeding and tending God’s sheep, all of the others in our lives. That means setting aside the way fear binds us up into

small lives and small ways of living. That means embracing love as the basis of every action we undertake. In the resurrection, God’s love has been set loose in this world and that love is transforming the world through this broken body of Christ to which we belong. Just as Jesus confronted

Peter in the depth of his despair and guilt, Jesus confronts us in the depth of all that is not life giving but life taking. And, that confrontation always comes to us as love, changing our perspective, giving us new eyes to see, and NEVER leaving us where we have been or even where we are, but drawing us forward into life and love itself.
