How could it be? Even when talking to him she is confused and unable to see, thinking that he was the gardener. Her grief and pain were turned to joy and faith as she announced to the disciples: “I have seen the Lord!”
+ The encounter with the word and the word calls upon us to notice and examine our seeking and longing; our hoping and faith; and our tasting, and seeing and hearing and heart beating love.
Our cry must also be: “I have seen the Lord!”
Amen!
Lord, let me see you and know you and discover the life that you bring and are in our hearts.
Amen!
