Christ is risen!

The biggest pleasure for believer is in these words. There’re no such words, and they won’t be.

God became a human, came through the deaths’ gates, led humanity to the light and immortality from the dessert of loneliness and darkness.

How many love is in this sacrifice! How God’s wisdom is great and inconceivable!

That which’s tragic and horrible for human — the shame death on Cross, — became the beginning of great pleasure. The glory shined from humiliation, from bier —to life. A mortal became an immortal.

Today everything is filled with inexpressible joy: Heaven, earth and even hell. The whole universe rejoices. Because human is forever freed from the sin of Adam.

Birds and Angels glorify their Creator — the Conqueror of death. Nature triumphs. The dead ones rise. The pitch-dark night is replaced by a sparkling dawn, the despair — by faith and reverence.

The world is filled with the grace of God, and it’s being reborn.

All sorrows move away. Hearts are filling with light and hope. The soul freezes in a secret anticipation of the Divine Meal in the coming and glorious Kingdom of God, and it takes the sacrament of the glory of God already here, on earth, experiencing the blessed hours of Holy Easter, exclaiming with the words of the apostles on Tabor: “Lord, it is good for us to be here” (Matthew 17:4).
Lift up the head, all suffering and ill people. Risen christ will comfort you.

Let us forgive each other mutual grief and insults, let us shine with triumph and exclaim: “Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and on those in the tombs bestowing life.”

Christ is risen!
