Dawning Easter

"On the first day of the week, at the first sign of dawn,
  the women went to the tomb with the spices they had prepared." (Luke 24:1)
"Shine your love on us each dawn,
  and gladden all our days.
  Balance our past sorrows
  with present joys
  and let your servants, young and old,
  see the splendor of your work.
  Let your loveliness shine on us,
  and bless the work we do,
  bless the work of our hands.
                          (Psalm 90:14-17)
We take 12 days to ponder the mystery of Christmas; we take 40 to ponder the mystery of the Easter.
The weather report for Easter morning was rain, so I took some pictures of dawn on Holy Saturday.  I like this one of the coming light reflected in the still frozen lake.
