He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. " (Mark 16,5)
RESURREXIT SICUT DIXIT. ALLELUIA!
Easter 2001 - A special Prayer |

John Abela, ofm |
We feel like being buried in the tomb with a heavy stone blocking the entrance suffocating our breath and keeping us from experiencing the light! Yes Lord this last year of the millenium is bleeding under the rage of hate! We are watching, screaming, helpless to remove the stone from the tomb!
|
|
We hear the cries of those burying their dead, those digging under the rubble! We listen to shocking stories, to endless accounts of pain and suffering! We remain speachless when confronted with a crying child or a desperate mother! |
|
flying overhead, exploding, destroying, killing! We are appalled by eye-witnesses descriptions of cold blooded executions! Lord we are still blocked off by the tombstone of hate and violence! We are deaf because our hearts have strayed away from you! |
|
you embraced all humanity through your passion and suffering. You took us with you to the tomb.. and from the tomb you have given us life, and life eternal! Please Lord embrace us again in your loving arms! Help us grow and overcome the looming threats of death and destruction! |
