Gladden - May 22


 Resurrection changes our perspective on daily life. 
 Nothing is the same. 
 But what does resurrection mean? 
 That is worth some thought, isn’t it?

 Each Monday in this Easter season, I’ll provide a synonym for resurrection.
Like the facets of a gem turned slightly, each word gives a new sense of resurrection’s significance. 
Feel free to share your questions, insights, comments below.

This week’s word:
GLADDEN
Gladden, a word not used much these days, is a verb that means “delight” or “cheer” or “bring joy to”.

How is this a synonym for resurrection? 
How long does the gladdening of your heart at Easter last?
