GOSPEL POWER - APRIL 4, 2021 - Easter Sunday of the Lord's Resurrection Gospel: Jn 20:1-9 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.” Then Peter and the other disciple set out and went toward the tomb. The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent down to look in and saw the linen wrappings lying there, but he did not go in. Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen wrappings lying there, and the cloth that had been on Jesus' head, not lying with the linen wrappings but rolled up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; for as yet they did not understand the scripture, that he must rise from the dead. REFLECTION The Paschal events heighten the contrast between the ways of the world and the ways of God. The worldly powers that conspired to put Jesus to death ensured that this event would be a superfluous display of violence, as if to declare loudly that they were in control. In contrast, the resurrection of Jesus is marked by such simplicity that can either be dismissed as insignificant or otherwise misinterpreted. An empty tomb and burial cloths — Mary Magdalene readily concludes that enemies have stolen Jesus' body. But one disciple, the one identified as the beloved of Jesus, looks through the eyes of his heart, understands the telltale signs, and believes. For the death of Jesus is a self-offering in love. Love has its own logic, its own way of making itself known. Love is God's way. Although the signs are simple, the beloved disciple knows in his heart that his Master is alive anew. PRAYER Hail to you, Lord Jesus Christ! Easter heralds the triumph of your love. Alleluia! Amen.

"Looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back--it was exceedingly large." Mk. 16:4 Technically speaking, a person cold argue that all the eyewitnesses of the Resurrection were lying! It's an absurd argument, but it cannot be completely refuted. But there is one powerful witness to the Lord's Resurrection that could not lie, and can't be refuted. It's the stone that covered the tomb. If it could speak, and explain how it moved, it would prove the Resurrection beyond a shadow of a doubt. Let's take a look...

Having heard the rumors of our Lord's Resurrection, it is amazing to find two of His followers in deep depression headed away from Jerusalem. This encounter that lasted hours shows how very much our Lord loves those who struggle with their faith at the most inopportune times!
