EASTER SUNDAY OF THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD SOLEMNITY
ALLELUIA, HE IS RISEN. TRULY HE IS RISEN
The significance of the empty tomb was seemingly beyond the comprehension of Peter and Mary Magdalen. It was the beloved apposite John, who understood the implication. He saw and
believed. When we trust whole-heartedly in Christ, we witness things that seemingly defy human comprehension. Easter is evidence of that. The love of the cross triumphs over sin and death. From humiliation, brutality and pain come redemption and salvation. Alleluia indeed!
Thomas answered and said to him, "My Lord and my God!" Jesus said to him, "Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed." - Jn 20:28-29
