Ave Maria Meditations
With each passing year the unfolding of the Resurrection Gospel of Emmaus becomes more luminous, more transparent like the favorite page in an old book, the page that with each reading delights one anew. The repetition and ritual recurrence of the Word shapes and reshapes the Church, making her ever more perfectly Christ’s beloved Bride, the Companion of the New Adam, born from His pierced side. You recall that it was this very page of the Gospel that was given us by the Servant of God, Pope John Paul II as the heart of his message for the Year of the Eucharist. He presented the mystery of Emmaus as a kind of Eucharistic icon. |
Ave Maria Meditations

a meditation on THE FIRST GLORIOUS MYSTERY: THE RESURRECTION
“Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive honor, glory and praise!” (Rev 5:12)
Meditation:
The Glory of Faith: “Faith is the confident assurance concerning what we hope for, and conviction about things we do not see.” (Heb 11: 1)
The glorious resurrection of Our Lord continues in the glory of this most Blessed Sacrament BECAUSE THIS IS WHERE OUR RISEN SAVIOR DWELLS, pouring out His life, His light, and His love to all who come into His presence. If our faith in the Eucharist is weak, then we simply pray “Lord, I do believe, help my unbelief.” |
ALLELUIA! HE IS RISEN !
And behold I Am with you all days until the consummation of the world. (Mt. 28:20)
If we have at length interpreted the connection between Supper and Cross, we have in fact all the time been speaking also of the Resurrection. Not only are Supper and Cross inseparable: Supper, Cross and Resurrection form the one indivisible Paschal Mystery. The theology of the Cross is the Resurrection; therefore the Resurrection is the divine response and the divine interpretation of the Cross. The theology of the Cross is a paschal theology, a theology of joyous victory even in this valley of tears.

Ave Maria! Some say Christ never died. Some say the Apostles Hallucinated. Neither of these objections hold water. Ave Maria! |
Ave Maria! Christ truly died and truly rose from the dead. This miracle is absolute proof of His claim to be Divine. Ave Maria! |
