“This is the night that even now, throughout the world,
sets Christian believers apart
from worldly vices and from the gloom of sin,
leading them to grace and joining them to his holy ones.
This is the night, when Christ broke the prison-bars of death
and rose victorious from the underworld.
Our birth would have been no gain, had we not been redeemed…

Religious faith – and especially religious practice – waxes and wanes over lifetimes
The sun dances. The universe dances. Jesus’ death and resurrection in a small country two thousand years ago, makes Jesus’ Presence available to everyone, everywhere and for all time.
There can be no greater gift. Our hearts join in the dance of gratitude.
Thank you for your beautiful comment . I read somewhere that ‘gratitude is love acknowledged’. This seems to fit with what you wrote.
