Tuesday within the Octave of Easter. John 20:11-18

Jesus is our loving friend

While we all know that it is very difficult to deal with the loss of a loved one, it is also important for us not to dwell too much on sadness, grief, and sorrow. Mary Magdelene focus was on the sadness of her Master's death and not on the hope of the resurrection. In such conditions, she could not recognize the risen Christ. Jesus may also remain a gardener if we remain staked in our discouragement, sufferings, and pains. When we shift from hopelessness and desperation, we begin to see and to talk to the risen Christ as our loving friend and, not as the gardener.
