And he said unto them, Be not amazed: you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified: he is risen;
He is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. - Mark 16:6
‘I am the resurrection, and the life: He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.’
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? — John 11: 25-26
On this day when Christians around the world celebrate this most holy of Christian holidays I would like to wish all who gather here a very happy and blessed Easter. If you are a believer celebrate with joy the miracle of the Resurrection and the promise of salvation. And if you are not take this beautiful, joyful spring day to rest, reflect, renew. The old world will pick up and continue on its way tomorrow and, God willing, we shall too.
I hope many of you will once again be able to celebrate with family and friends this year – if if it still means wearing a mask and social distancing to der Doktor.
