May Jesus Christ be
praised and may his holy Mother pray for us.
Mary Magdalene walked
to the tomb in darkness. She ran from
the tomb in fear. Two disciples ran to
the tomb in confusion. And then everything
changed.
The body had not been
stolen. Thieves would have taken the
burial clothes as well. The burial
clothes remained. In fact, they were
very carefully arranged.
There could really only
be one answer. There could really only
be one thing that was true. The Lord
Jesus had risen as he promised. He is
risen for me and for you.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Amen.
