On this last Sunday of Pascha, we celebrate that the Risen Lord has brought us from the spiritual darkness of sin and death into the brilliant light of His heavenly Kingdom. Even as Christ restored sight to the man born blind in today’s gospel reading, He illumines our darkened souls. That is how the Lord enables us to know and experience Him as “partakers of the divine nature” by grace.
