Lent 48: Risen (Easter Monday)

Easter Monday!! Day Forty-Eight of Lent. Today’s meditation is a visualization exercise inspired by Mark 16, Matthew 28, Luke 24, Acts 1, John 20, 1 Corinthians 15, Hosea 6, and Isaiah 53.

During this meditation, and for the final week of this series (Holy Week) we take a deep dive into the final week of Yehsua’s life. We meditate upon what it would have been like in his time, & really try to imagine the context of Yeshua’s life & teachings.

Yeshua is risen,

He's risen indeed.

Happy Easter Monday my dearest hearkeners.

Welcome to the 48th and final meditation of this Lent series.

Today we celebrate resurrection.

Today we celebrate renewal.

Today we celebrate revival.

I invite you to close your eyes,

Relax your body and quiet your mind if it is safe and helpful to do so.

Yahweh is making all things new.

Yeshua is risen,

He is risen indeed.

Yeshua,

Whose very name means God saves,

Is risen.

Today we embrace a spirit of renewal.

Let there be joy,

Where there is fear,

Worry,

Stress and anxiety.

Let there be peace,

Where there is pain and suffering.

Let there be joy,

Where there is divisiveness and even hatred.

Let there be love and unity.

Just as this time of year brings lush green grass growing anew,

Flowers budding and blooming,

And trees bursting to life,

So this time is a reminder that new life,

Renewal is all around us,

Resurrection is all around us,

Revival is all around us,

New life is all around us.

And in fact,

It is within us.

The same power that gives new life to the grass and the flowers and the trees lives inside of us.

The same power that gives new life to the grass and the flowers and the trees lives in us.

So let's celebrate.

Let us celebrate resurrection.

Let us celebrate renewal.

Let us celebrate revival.

Yahweh is making all things new.

Yeshua is risen.

He is risen indeed.

Today we embrace a spirit of renewal.

Let there be hope.

Let there be peace.

Let there be joy.

Let there be love and unity.

Let hope rise in us.

Let peace rise in us.

Let joy rise in us.

Let love rise in us.

Let unity rise in us.

Let love and unity rise in us.

Let hope,

Peace,

Joy,

Love and unity rise in us.

Yeshua is risen.

We are risen indeed.

Yeshua is risen.

We are risen indeed.

We are risen indeed.

Thank you for joining me in this meditation and in this whole Lent meditation series,

My dear,

Dear Hearkeners.

May hope and peace,

Joy and love,

Unity and grace and light be with you always.
