Thoughts on the Resurrection

Easter thoughts - Resurrection is the culmination of awakening to the reality of Divine Providence in all things. Jesus received this awakening during his time in the desert and became convinced of his call to liberate the Jewish people from religious and political bondage. But, the desert experience was just the beginning, not the end. Again through Divine Providence Jesus had more to learn and from a woman! 


By a conversion experience from a Syrophoenician woman, Jesus was to discover that his ministry was to extend beyond the Jewish people. He was called to “deliver” all from bondage to false teachings, promises and attachments. Ultimately, he was convicted for his ministerial viewpoint as it was a threat to power of the religious and secular establishment.

We, too, have the Resurrection experience available if we fully embrace the Jesus Philosophy of love of God and love of neighbor; nothing else matters. So let us wake up!
