At this time last year, it must have felt like we\u2019d never get past the pain and sorrow associated with Good Friday, and go on to the joy of Easter, at least not in our everyday lives. When we think of Good Friday, we think of Jesus\u2019 scourging, his pain, and suffering on the cross. We think of the immense grief his mother and followers must have felt. Many of us were going through our own pain, bearing our own crosses. After a Good Friday year, we can, at last, celebrate an Easter year, a year of rebirth and renewal. We slowly return to normal, just as the world slowly returns to life in the spring.
\nHow this relates to everyone:
\nBe cautioned! When it comes to the chronic, existential crisis of keeping America a Constitutional Republic, we are in the autumn. With faith in ourselves and the Creator, this too shall pass. Christians and Jews have endured much greater tyranny than what some of our current political leaders have in mind for us. Some of it, very recently. Keep the faith, spread the Word, and endure.
\nEven the non-religious should beware, religious freedom is low-hanging fruit for those engaged in tyranny. All that we consider \u201cnatural rights\u201d, life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness; the First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments are in danger.
