Jesus is Looking for You Today

It’s Easter Sunday! Hallelujah!

If you’ve been following our reflections these past few days, we’ve decided to skip the reflection for today and instead make a small request. Please spend a few minutes with the Gospels and place yourself in the hearts and minds of those who encountered Jesus on this day, roughly 2,000 years ago. Imagine that first glance from Jesus, the discovery that the gardener outside the tomb is the Lord! That the wayward traveler on the road is the Word of life! Feel their joy and let it become your joy too.

Become Mary Magdalene as she runs to the tomb early in the morning. Imagine yourself as our blessed Mother, as Peter and John. Put yourself in the shoes of the two disciples walking the road to Emmaus - Cleopas and possibly his wife Mary - as the traveler unpacks the word for them and shows himself in the breaking of the bread. Now that you know his hidden face, ask Jesus to show himself to you today too!

If you look for him, he will.

Happy Easter!
