Those of us who had done the Vigil, fasted yesterday during Good Friday and attended the service. Did you not experience profound sadness? A sense of loss? Especially when you saw Jesus physically absent in the tabernacle and the sacramentals removed? Yes some of us felt His presence still as spiritual consolation but wasn’t the overall experience surreal?
Now while we continue to fast and remain in prayer, do you now begin to feel a different experience? A sense of joyful anticipation? Perhaps in a sense like a pregnant woman about to give birth? A new beginning?
Amen! I am thankful to be Catholic! Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit! Amen.
