Here begins the New Life

The Readings for the Easter Season speak of the New Life--"That your Joy may be full."   We have all encountered Love--as Dante proclaimed, "Behold the God more powerful than I who coming shall rule over me"--but how are we transformed to Abide in Love?  What is the forge that God uses to purify our love and transform us from servants into lovers--Friends?  This morning we are called to a place where it is enough to be loved.
