On this Octave Day of Easter, the Second Sunday of the Easter Season, as we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday, we are reminded of the gifts of peace and joy that come only from God through his Son, Jesus. We are told that we are blessed because we did not see the Risen Christ and yet we still believe in him because of the witness of those who did see him. And we are – again – reminded that our ultimate destiny is to dwell within the kingdom of light, peace, and joy of heaven… a beautiful invitation that we can never earn on our own merit, of which we are not worthy, and one that will take us a lifetime to accept!
