EASTER  MEANS ....

Quote for Today - Easter Sunday - March 31,  2013



"Easter means - 
hope prevails over despair.
Jesus reigns as Lord of Lords,
         and King of Kings.
Oppression and injustice and suffering
can't be the end of the human story.
Freedom and justice,
peace and reconciliation,
are his will for all of us,
black and white,
in this land and throughout the world.
Easter says to us
that despite everything to the contrary,
his will for us will prevail,
love will prevail over hate,
justice over injustice and oppression,
peace over exploitation and bitterness."

Bishop Desmond Tutu, Crying in the Wilderness, 1982
