Easter message "Easter proclaims the message of renewal and hope - a hope that transcends all limitations and triumphs over man's worst fears. This message of renewal is especially meaningful now during this challenging time in our Nation's history when Sri Lanka is recovering from the worst natural disaster in living memory. The empty tomb of Easter symbolizes the inability of circumstances to crush the spirit of hope. Three months on, we Sri Lankans are rebuilding our lives after having dealt with a major tragedy. As St. Paul in his letter to the Romans says, "The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armour of light." (Romans 13:12), let us this Easter renew our strength and hope, so that we may rise above this devastation, in unity. |
