Fr Rory Writes:
Just a lovely night. There is something very special about the Easter Vigil. Admittedly it is focused upon the gift of belief Jesus Christ has entered into our human experience. He has shared our lives, especially our sufferings and afflictions. But the mystery remains.
With the beautiful singing of the Exultet, and other voices raised in psalm and song, this Holy Night was truly a night full of joy. So often life brings you down to earth again with a bang, and then you are left with options and choices. Do you deal with them in a manner that reflects Christ and His example to us?
Looking back at my piece last year, I think it is worthwhile to repeat “good trees bear good fruit”. High moments and Holy moments are quite rare. It is in living our daily lives in a way that brings help and hope to others that is most important.
