“
Coming out of that Easter service, I felt hopeful and very happy. My heart felt at peace. It was inexplicable. What Vanya was felt about faith was the same thing I felt on that day. Whatever he was trying to describe, I could sense that finally. Out of my newfound faith, I had hope for what the future lay ahead. All the negative memories of my life went away, like mud washed down the river. I only felt positive about the future, looking forward to the days to come.
It was the bright early morning of a new sunny day. Outside, the sky was beautiful.
“Christ is Risen!” I confessed out loud, finally.
“Christ is Risen, Indeed,” echoed a silent voice within.
Epilogue: I like to think that the few lines above are the epilogue of the book to this days Faith as what makes “my heart go on” no matter the depressive moments that I now can feel, Faith gives me the courage to endure all kind of difficulties.
One should always remember this small poem of mine.
“God is for everybody”
God is for everybody
For the Russian
For the French
For all the others Even if they don’t wanted it.
God is for everybody
Not, only, for the Muslims
Not, only, for the Christians
Not, only, for the Buddhists
Not — Even — only, for the Jews
Not for one particular religion
God is for everybody
Especially for the one that do not want it.
