Ten Easter Monday Things that Caught My Eye Today (April 6, 2015)

Last updated on: April 6, 2015 at 7:46 pm By Kathryn Jean Lopez

1. Fr. Lawrence Lew, O.P.: He comes and he says to the women and to you and me: Chairete, that is, ‘Rejoice in my grace; be filled with God’s favour’. Hence, he comes and encounters them; the Risen Lord gives himself to them. For it is only through a real encounter with Christ that we can truly rejoice. Joy is a gift of the Holy Spirit, it comes from a grace-filled abiding in God that unites us to the Living... Read more

Last updated on: April 5, 2015 at 11:02 am By Kathryn Jean Lopez

From Christ in His Mysteries by Blessed Columba Marmion: If every year, during Lent and Holy Week, we are faithful in sharing the sufferings of Christ, every year also the celebration of the mystery of Easter, by making us contemplate the victory of Jesus victorious over death, makes us partake more fruitfully and more abundantly of His divine condition of being risen; it increases over detachment from everything that is not God, it enlarges the divine life with us, through...

We are advised to think diligently, that is, to think upon him over and over again. In all your ways, says Holy Scripture, think upon him (Prv 3:6).
