EASTER, A TIME OF HOPE

Of all the holy, seasons by the Christian World
throughout’ the. year,' there is non more inspiring of
hope, none more ‘revitalizing than that of Easter.

” This holy itirne, observed each ‘year ‘on the first ‘Sun-
day after. the, first full moon, following the 21st of
March, isa “Season of: hope both in the momentous
Victory | over Death it recalls, and in the place it en-
joys in ‘the annual cycle of seasons.

Easter comes in the Springtime, when) marks ©

- of a new happier. season are at every hand. Winter.
snow and ice ,are making - a_last.vain stand on the
mountain tops; new lifeis breaking ‘through ‘the cold
earth on every. hand; gardens and buds are straining
to burst their bonds. The whole earth is awaking
from the’ death-like sleep of winter.

» ‘These signs. ‘Of, a new natural life. abounding at

“Easter time, are, “but. Nature’s symbols of the New
Life given to” “the” ‘world by Nature's Creator that
first Easter weekend over 1900 years ago.

The dreary Winter recalls Good Friday afternoon
when the sky’ was darkéried; the earth quaked and
all Nature seemed 1 in. turmoil as the Son of God paid
the Supreme Ransom for our,Salvation. The. glories
of Spring, proof that a new season of life has begun,
symbolize the glorious. reunion” of His. bruised and:

‘wounded Body with His Soul Easter Sunday morning,
proof that He was the Son. of.:God and. that His .

Sacrifice, triumphing.. over ‘the Death of Sin, was | ~

accepted.on man’s behalf. All the: hope by which a
Christian life is inspired, is. based on the solid--
. foundation of Easter and the‘Resurrection. The truth ©
of Easter is the triumph of the defeated, the finding .
of the lost; the’. spingtime of the earth; the waking
of a new life. There is much for the thoughtful mind :.
to ponder on in thé account’ of the First Easter as -
told in the four gospels. Christ's tomb was the only /
.!tomb in’ the‘history of the world which has‘ ever had
a. rock roll } before. it and.a soldier. guard set to
watch it ‘to prévent-the dead Man within from rising,
vas He said He would. The ‘soldiers watching the ©
‘Corpse were posted there by His enemies. They
:seemed -to expect His. Resurrection, yet: His*friends ~
re not for they ame. on ‘Easter “moming to anoint .

and. that. angels le wore thatthe the - Resurrection;
“they. did not believe them, but dismissed the. ree

It. was .not till the. ‘Apostles had seen: ‘ths nah
tomb: and the finen cloth: Sin which, Christ's Body.
had be: in enshrouded 'lyi ing: nedtly” folded where He.

Magdalen- and “othe

~ ‘Christ's. ‘ gentle. ° ‘fobuke when He «resolved
: Thomas’ 's doubts, ‘Thou. believest.now that-thou hast

seen; blessed’ are ‘they’ that have- not seen and have. e

believed,” is-a lesson for all who are. not.-much dis-
posed to beli in’ miracl Jespite. the . miracl
about them every day including the’ miracle of life
itself.

It is the hope that Easter inspires that makes
it reasonable for: those. Mthat have ‘not seen’ pte
believe.” ‘
