Life, Not Death The Resurrection of the Lord

...they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. ...two men in dazzling garments

appeared to them. ...They said to them, "Why do you seek the living one among the dead?" - Luke 24:3, 4, 5 This, for me, is the most stunningly joyful question in all of Scripture. It was incomprehensible then, even when the angels explained that Jesus had been raised. Even after they had foretold of this happening. When the women went to tell the apostles, they thought the story was "nonsense"(verse 11). We still feel the shocking wonder. He defeated death--his own and ours! At Easter Mass after my mother died, I heard the angels' challenge as also spoken to us: "Look for your loved one alive again with the Living Lord, not among the dead." I began to notice what our family now calls "sightings." A song they loved comes on the radio, we find their favorite ice cream on sale, we realize a butterfly is waving its wings at us as we walk by: our risen Lord showing us that death will not end life. Alleluia!
