Jesus Chooses You on Easter Sunday and Every Day

Jesus Chooses You on Easter Sunday and Every Day In today’s Gospel we hear about St. John and St. Peter running to Jesus’ empty tomb. Recall, they did not yet understand what Jesus’ Resurrection meant. After arriving at the tomb, the Gospel tells us . . . they understood what had happen. Imagine turning within the tomb, and looking out at the world, completely changed. They exited from the tomb changed. The world itself changed. Peter and John are tasked with spreading the message of Jesus’ Resurrection. Now imagine you and me at the tomb. Jesus also chooses us to spread the message through our normal life. However, imagine how the Resurrection will impact their life . . . with our life . . . in delivering the message. Jesus chooses you . . . to deliver this message. Understand what that really means! Listen to: Jesus Chooses You on Easter Sunday and Every Day Listen to this Meditation Media. ------------------------ Image: The Disciples Peter and John Running to the Sepulchre on the Morning of the Resurrection: Swiss Painter: Eugène Burnand: 1898 This painting is also known by its shorten name, The Disciples. Now residing in Paris, it was not well received when it was first presented. But look at the painting again. It is truly remarkable! Look at the hands of the younger disciple in anticipation. He holds his hands together anxiously. Look at Peter’s expression. He looks both terrified and hopeful. The artist captures the emotion and the movement of the disciples. How truly wonderful and appropriate for this Meditation piece. ------------------------ Gospel Reading: John 20: 1-9
