Scholars of non-violence, say it only takes 2% of the population to make a change in society. How we live our lives can bring out the best in our community.
Life is about getting out of the harbour and going to ‘the other side’.
We need to not be afraid of what we encounter, prepare to have failures and step out with faith and trust.
The miracle is taking the first step, keeping our eyes on the goal and not being fearful of what may happen.
Have courage, Jesus is there with you.
Easter breaks down racial and cultural barriers and all are included in ‘The Lord has Risen’. In Matthew’s gospel the women become the ‘apostles’ to the Apostle , Women are included in the ‘all people’ to go and tell of the coming of this new event that is now happening.
God’s love is not reserved for a once a year religious event be it Christmas or Easter, a few privileged people or confined to a time or place.
God’s love is revealed in Christ’s humanity, for the sake of all our humanity.

So as Christians we need to get on with it – visiting, clothing and feeding those in need – shifting our gaze from vertical to horizontal.
