In a world of things we do not know, in a life full of questions of ‘why?’ In our experiences of all that dies and decays, we mourn. We mourn, but not as those without hope. We are an Easter people, and alleluia is our song.
Christianity is the conviction that love is stronger than death, that we are sealed upon God’s heart, that no matter what may confront us, assail us, or leave us, we need never be afraid. In Christ’s outstretched arms on the cross, and in his outstretched arms as risen Lord embracing those he loves, he shows us that love is stronger than death.
