Easter is not a time for groping through dusty, musty tomes or tombs… It is a day to fan the ashes of dead hope, a day to banish doubts and seek the slopes where the sun is rising, to revel in the faith which transports us out of ourselves and the dead past into the vast and inviting unknown. ~Author unknown, as quoted in the Lewiston Tribune
He takes men out of time and makes them feel eternity. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Burst at last from winter snows.
Earth with heaven above rejoices... ~Charles Kingsley

To a Christian, Easter Sunday means everything, when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. ~Bernhard Langer
May you live your life with the power of Christ's resurrection which gives the sure hope of your own salvation reveling in the faith that allows us to know Eternity. See around you nature's evidence and find in Easter everything.
