To Practice:
- Spend some time with nature in the coming week, aware of the promise of Easter in the dying-and-rising process of God’s creation. At this time of year, it may be spring or fall in your part of the planet, but either way, meditate on the “Easter DNA” that is written into everyone and everything. You might journal, draw, or create poetry based on this experience.
- After a period of Centering or other quiet prayer, open your heart to see in some person or situation the endless possibilities of Easter life, even amid flaws, difficulties, conflicts. Ask to be a channel of new life. Perhaps a concrete opportunity to do this will arise but be assured that it often happens without our knowing.
