Objectively Easter Message

By: Joe Mauricio

 

For the last three weeks, I was feeling tired, sleepy, and just feeling lousy. Worried about my health condition, I visited my cardiologist for a check-up. He told me that I have enlargement of the heart and should not do any strenuous chores. I went home and went straight to bed for an afternoon nap.

At some point, I came up to the edge of the Pearly Gates to Heaven and found that I could not enter it. Once again, describing what this felt like is challenging in the extreme times every time you’ve experienced disappointment. There is a sense in which all the losses that we undergo are in truth variations of one’s central loss— the Loss of Heaven. I was heartbroken, sank into a world of ever-increasing sorrows.

I moved to the walls of clouds…there was murmuring around me, but I couldn’t understand the words. Then I realized that countless beings were surrounding me, kneeling in areas that spread into the distance. Looking back on it now, I realize what they were doing, that these half-seen, half-sense of beings, stretching out into the dark above and below, were praying for me….all the VIA Times and CPRTV crew!

These prayers gave me energy, something in me felt a strange confidence that everything would be all right. These beings knew I was undergoing a transition, and they were singing and praying to help me keep my spirit up.

I was headed into the unknown, but by that point, I had complete faith and trust that I would be taken care of the ever-loving God had promised–that wherever I went, Heaven would come with me. It would come in the form of the Creator God, and it would come in form of the Angel–my Guardian Angel.

I was on my way back, but I was not alone–and I knew I’d never feel alone again.

Throughout life, we have so many obstacles that prevent us from living that trusting faith of Walk With God. These obstacles render us unfruitful and powerless, and prevent us from having that ultimate relationship with Him.

It is my desire that every Child of God will open up their minds to freely receive as God freely gives.

Happy Easter, everyone!
