κι ήταν αυγή…
Τα πουλιά γλυκολαλούσανε,
Θεία ωδή!
Κι απ’ του τάφου τη σκοτεινιά,
άγιο φως να λαμποκοπά…
Αναστήθηκε ο Χριστός!..
Αλληλούια, αλληλούια,
αναστήθηκε ο Χριστός!..
Δειλινό της πρώτης Κυριακής,
γέλια χαρές…
στ΄ άγιο δώμα στέγης θεϊκής,
αγνές φωνές…
Ξάφνου έρχεται ο Χριστός,
όλος δόξα ζωή και φως…
«Κύριος μου και Θεός!»
Αλληλούια, αλληλούια,
«Κύριος μου και Θεός!».
Κι ήρθε μέρα κοσμογονική,
μέρα τρανή…
και ανοίξανε οι ουρανοί
στον Νικητή…
Άρατε άρχοντες τ’ ουρανού,
Πύλες άρατε του φραγμού…
Αναλήφθηκε ο Χριστός!..
Αλληλούια, αλληλούια,
αναλήφθηκε ο Χριστός!..
SPIRITUAL REFLECTIONS from our church today
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήTHOMAS SUNDAY
Thomas doubt was such that it led to the confirmation of his faith and he cried: "My Lord and my God".
...let us beware of the pessimistic, half-empty view of the world. This was the view that was held from the Pharisees who only nitpick, hairsplit and find fault, even criticising Him who heald on the Sabbath. The Pharisees are those who see only a few trees, never the whole forest, who oppose the good and creative and positive, who reduce the Living God to a mere ritual. And this pessimistic view was also the view of the Sadducees, the jaundiced doubters, the intellectuals of the age of Christ, who refused to believe in the Resurrection.
Let us rather turn to the optimistic, view of the world. Not blindly or foolishly optimistic, but carefully and wisely optimistic. Because we know that Christ is risen, because we know that, whatever our many human weaknesses, His Resurrection confers on us life in abundance everlasting life and that whatever the destiny of this world in the near or distant futurethe last words in history are Christ's. And those words will be words of victory, trampling down death by death and on those in the tombs bestowing life.
Crist is risen! Truly is risen!
