An Easter Prayer is an original prayer by Mary of Blessed Catholic Mom. It may not be copied without the permission of the author.
I wrote An Easter Prayer as a reminder that Easter is not only one day. In the Church, we have a season of Easter where we continue to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection from the dead and the joy of our salvation. We can remember the great sacrifice Jesus made for us as we participate in each Mass we attend and receive His body, blood, soul, and divinity in the Eucharist. May we always be greatful* to Jesus for His great sacrifice for us and for His desire for us to share eternity with Him in Heaven. May we model our lives after His-in love for God and service to others. Amen.
An Easter Prayer was inspired by the song “Jesus Christ is Risen Today.” Alleluia means “Praise the Lord!”

*Note on my use of greatful instead of grateful: To me, a grate is a grid or part of a cheese grater, not a condition of the heart. Our hearts can be great in love and gratitude; they can inspire us to greatness. I am greatful for the great things God has done for me. Thus, I spell grateful greatful this way.
