6th Sunday of Easter
Second Reading Apocalypse 21:10-14,22-23
The Easter season reaches its radiant fullness in the vision of the heavenly Jerusalem, where the light of the Risen Christ banishes all darkness. As described in the Apocalypse, this city has no need of sun or moon, for it is illuminated by the glory of God, and the Lamb—Christ crucified and risen—shines as its eternal torch. This image is not only a promise for the future but a truth for the present: wherever Christ is welcomed, there is light. His Resurrection becomes the dawn that never fades, dispelling the shadows of fear, sin, and despair. In this light, we learn to walk by faith, to live in hope, and to see each other with the eyes of love. Easter reminds us that the true source of all illumination is not celestial bodies, but the living presence of the Risen Lord, who lights our path toward the fullness of life. Let’s reflect: Easter is the radiant victory of the Risen Christ, whose presence becomes the unfading light that illuminates our lives and leads us into the glory of God’s eternal dwelling.
