"I Am the Resurrection and the Life."
To those who live in the Southland, where in these
first glorious days of Spring, it is a daily, yet always ex
quisite experience to behold the crocus as it bursts into
bloom, and to hear the clear notes of those first feathered
bearers of good tidings, it is not difficult to anticipate that
exuberance, that feeling of renewed interest in life and in
all that is highest and noblest in it, which is symbolized by
the Easter season.
It is a wonderfully significant fact; it is a challenge
to enter into the realm of the beautiful, that just when
of
our hearts are beginning to thrill with the
Naure, displayed in the green of the trees, the blue of the
skies, and the delicate hues of Spring flowers, the Easter
season comes upon us, with its parallel, yet richer and
more deeply significant message of life eternal, promised
in the miracle of the resurrection of Him who typifies the
ideal in the soul of man.
Yesterday,

"Whether we look, or whether we listen,
We hear life murmur, "or see it glisten,"
so on Easter, whether we choose to go out of our way to
attend the majestic, symbolic services of our churches;
whether we realize the full significance of His words, "I
am the resurrection and the life," our thoughts will wander back ;our souls will look once more into the empty
tomb, and life will be brightened by a more beautiful hope
which cannot but lift us betimes above the commonplace
things of time and sense, the petty strivings of the busy

world in which we live.
Scholars will look up from their studies, at Easter
tide, and their philosophy of living will take on a more
convincing, more divinely beautiful aspect; busy exponents of the great industrial world about us will forget for
a day the importance of material gain; even those to
whom the gay whirl of pleasure seems sweetest will be
brought by the perfume of the lily and the golden glory of
the jonquil to remembrance of those ideals for which He
died, whose resurrection we commemorate.
