We are given a new lease on life, because Christ is Risen from the dead. Death no longer has power over those of us who give our lives to Him, as we bear witness to His Resurrection by living life anew.
In the Resurrection accounts in all four Gospels, the people who first encounter evidence of the Resurrection are filled with a variety of emotions, like trembling, fear, doubt, and uncertainty. Yet the marvel of this event, unlike anything that had ever happened, is that it transforms those who encounter it, in whatever state they are in. Indeed, we are so transformed that the change is evident in the new way we live our lives, as we make evident our encounter with the Resurrection.
