“To one who has Faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without Faith, no explanation is possible.”
– St. Thomas Aquinas
At the end of the day, what we believe dictates what we can accomplish. What we Believe, dictates who we are. What can be explained – well, that’s a sole product of the Faith we have in what we Believe. That’s true in the work context, and it’s true on the broader canvas of life.
This quote, my Good Friday / Easter Sunday staple, is a good one for us to consider.
A friend of mine and Brother in Him suggested the Twitter handle “#itisdone” for Easter. And, it is. He’s right. He’s 100%, absolutely, positively right.
It. Is. Done.
And no greater gift could we ever be given. And no level of appreciation could ever be enough.
Yet we’re not called to appreciate. And we’re not called to reciprocate. We’re called to follow. To believe. To live with the knowledge that with one, incredible, heroic feat borne of love — nothing else matters.
Whether no explanation is necessary, or whether no explanation is possible, it is done.
And no greater difference will ever be made.

Well said, My Friend.
Your Jewish Friend (at this very holy time of year for both of us — and at every other time).
