There is a lot more to Easter than the Easter bunny!
Bishop Kelvin gave a brilliant homily at our Easter service. As I understod it, he was challenging us to see, hear and think beyond what we can perceive using our senses. With the analogy of dogs who see les colours than we do and certain birds who see a greater rang of colours than we can and this is only the sense of sight, how many other frequencies of life, or planes , or dimensions of existence are there?
And doesnt this open us up to the possibility of life beyond what we know in our heads?
This adds a different level of understanding perhaps to Jesus miracles, Jesus risen, the presence and gifts of the holy Spirit, life after death, heaven... .
For most if us an Easter service, the hunting of eggs or the presence of large chocolate eggs, hot cross buns, and hopefully a family gathering of some sort is our Easter.
With all that is your holiday (holy-day) keep some room for miracles, for new life and possibilities where it looked like there was no life or no hope, room for peace and room for laughter.
God bless
