Oftentimes we may feel a sense of despair, that nothing can ever change in our lives. Thomas Merton once said that sometimes that kind of despair can be a manifestation of pride. Because we sometimes think that God can’t change anything and that we know better. But that’s not what Easter tells us! So, one way to live out the Resurrection in your life is, first, to believe in Jesus’s resurrection. Which means that new life is possible for you, too!
--Fr. James Martin, S.J.
