 Friends, today’s Gospel reveals *St. John’s report of Mary Magdalene’s
encounter with the risen Jesus. An interesting lesson follows from the
disquieting fact of the Resurrection—namely, that this world is not it. *What
I mean is that *this world is not all that there is*. We live our lives
with the reasonable assumption that the natural world as we’ve come to know
it is the final framework of our lives and activities. And *one of the most
powerful and frightening features of the natural world is death. *Every
living thing dies and stays dead.

*But what if death and dissolution did not have the final say? What if,
through God’s power, and according to his providence, a “new heavens and a
new earth” were being born? The Resurrection of Jesus from the dead shows
as definitively as possible that God is up to something greater than we had
imagined or thought possible.*

*And therefore we don’t have to live as though death were our master*. *In
light of the Resurrection, we can begin to see this world as a place of
gestation*, *a place of growth and maturation toward something higher, more
permanent, and more splendid.*

*Imádkozzál érettünk, Istennek szent Anyja!  Hogy méltók lehessünk Krisztus
ígéreteire!  Könyörögjünk! Kérünk téged, Úristen, öntsd lelkünkbe szent
kegyelmedet, hogy akik az angyali üzenet által szent Fiadnak, Jézus
Krisztusnak megtestesülését megismertük, az ő kínszenvedése és keresztje
által a föltámadás dicsőségébe vitessünk! Krisztus, a mi Urunk által. Ámen.*
