Friday of Easter
Where have we left off?
Yesterday, we witnessed Peter giving an account of Jesus' resurrection in the light of Scriptures, to the amazement of the Pharisees who were supposed to be the learned in Israel.
He was talking from the heart. From a direct testimony of Jesus who resurrected, he now proceeds to touching people's lives with the authority of Jesus himself.
In the gospel, an intimate experience with the Lord makes the apostles fully convinced and without question that the one who was directing them was Jesus himself. But what struck me was not just because Jesus had risen from the dead. Rather, he continues to give them life as he continues to give us life.
He converts the sadness of people into joy. He fills them with food. He consoles and he heals. He has the power to give us life everyday of our lives.
Let us be sensitive to the signs of life. Let us vow to give life and only life to others. This will be our direct testimony the Jesus is fully alive in our lives.
