Just as the Gospels are a catalogue of the most unexpected events, so our own lives are full of scenarios that we cannot understand. Sometimes, we run from them because they are too great for us. By his Resurrection, Jesus is giving us revived hope in those situations. If he can conquer even death, then what have we to worry, as long as we are doing his will? Whatever is too great for us, is manageable for Jesus. And, just as Jesus sweated blood at the worry and anguish of his forthcoming crucifixion, but still did the Father’s will, so we shall receive the love and protection of God as long as we live our lives as Christians. Nothing is too great for God, and today represents a liturgical summit of this wonderful truth. May we use this day and the whole of Eastertide to realign ourselves with Jesus. For it is in Him that we live, and it is through him that we attain the Heavenly Kingdom, that is, the resurrection of our own bodies into eternal paradise.
