Joy of the Resurrection

CS Lewis once spoke to the obligation of all Christians to be as happy as possible. How can he make such a claim? Because we all always have something to be joyful about-- and it isn't a small thing!!!!! The Resurrection is the source of all joy in Christian life; it is the source of hope, of love! It is through the Resurrection that mankind is redeemed, and has received as a gift from God the grace to overcome all sin, to love purely and selflessly. No matter what we go through, we must always keep this thought at the forefront of our minds, for it is our hope that our trials will be redeemed through Christ, and our joy for eternity!! May the triumph of our Lord be always sung by hearts!!
