Made one in Christ we gather with Christians near and far. Our week begins with worship, recalling whose we are, for Sunday is the Birth Day from which our hopes derive, the Easter Day, the First Day, when Christ returns alive. From Monday into Tuesday, wherever you may be, remember Jesus teaching and saying, "Follow me" with love, befriending, healing, that makes our spirits thrive, and grounds the joy of Sunday when Christ returns alive. Take stock of life on Wednesday, and measure every aim by Jesus' faithful journey towards Jerusalem. Our anxious urge to prosper, succeed, and long survive, fades in the glow of Sunday when Christ returns alive. On Thursday night, at supper, remember while you eat how Jesus left the table and knelt to wash our feet. Lift up your hearts! Be thankful! Let broken bread revive the triumph-song of Sunday when Christ returns alive. Recall on Friday evening, when Jesus' work was done, the wisdom, love and courage by which our hope was won. The hour of death and sadness can never quite contrive to steal the joy of Sunday when Christ returns alive. On Saturday, be willing to taste the in-between, suspended in the stillness of things unheard, unseen. Break into song at midnight and bid the dawn arrive to wake the world for Sunday when Christ returns alive.
