WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
We are now in the “Easter Season” which is with us for 7 more Sundays, then we will celebrate Pentecost Sunday. The great 50 days between Easter and Pentecost.
Meditate on the words to this hymn written by Norman Brookes.
Easter is a time of Rising.
Easter is a time of rising
Breaking forth and being renewed
Easter comes the world surprising,
Showing us what God can do.
Easter is a time of rising,
Breathes new life to mind and soul,
Easter is the Lords uprising,
Christ is Risen, Christ extol.
Easter is a time of rising,
Let its wonder touch each heart
Sense God’s power, tis energising
Empower us to play our part.
Easter is a time of rising,
Gift of hope for one, for all
Risen Christ now present with us,
Raise all those who heed your call.
Happy Easter One and all,
No matter what you are going through at this time.
Easter love and Blessings.
