This week, your humble servant is praying. So here is a meditation on the third Sunday of Easter, as well as the homily last year (click here)
The meeting risen!
disciples returning Emmaus told the eleven apostles and their companions what had happened on the road ...
The disciples of Emmaus who returned ...
Your death had left them completely helpless;
they had left the group ... Your
meeting, Lord Jesus has given them life.
They return to Jerusalem. Their
vi has regained its sense, since you're here, alive!
They can not keep for themselves the joy
they must share it.
That's the same reason that should push your disciples
today to meet all together
each "first day of the week".
The council pointed out:
that day, the faithful gather to remember the passion
resurrection of Lord Jesus and give thanks ...
Revives our faith, Lord,
to ensure this for all the baptized.
Jesus was there among them ...
You said: When two or three are gathered in my name,
I am there among them.
sudden your presence confirms your words.
This wonderful reality continues to perform for us
is yet another reminder of Vatican II:
to Mass is Christ who speaks
when we read the Scriptures;
it is offered by the ministry of priests, it is there under
the Eucharistic species ...
Increase our faith, Lord, to discover your presence,
invisible but always faithful ...
and just fill with joy thy disciples today.
Peace be with you!
This message, the angels singing already at your birth:
Peace to men of your lifetime ...
and your gift is Risen:
peace of God, his love, his life.
is the gift that you go to Mass,
inviting to share it: Go in the peace of Christ!
Yes, make us your artisans of peace, where we live.
For that, at every Mass, opens our minds to understand the Scripture as you did to your apostles and opens our heart to your love, your peace.
