Mary Magdalene

51vK90XiXDL._SX331_BO1,204,203,200_Wednesday July 22 was the feast day of Mary Magdalene. To honor her and give us all something to think about  I am sharing the last section in my chapter Mary Magdalene: The Dispossessed Woman from Women in the Bible: A Study.

 

Read and Contemplate John 20: 1-2, 11-18

Mary was the first to witness the risen Christ. Throughout

Jesus’ suffering and bloody death, the intensity of Mary’s faith

never diminished and at the resurrection, Mary witnessed Jesus

in another form, no longer subject to the laws of the flesh. Jesus

was ready for a new mode of existence and a new set of

relationships. Jesus had moved from the temporal to the eternal,

but was still alive and active.

Questions to Ponder:

  1. Do I seek Jesus in love?
  2. Do I search for fulfillment in earthly beings instead of

Jesus?

  1. Do I pray for a heart overflowing with thanks and give

Jesus my life?

Conclusion:

Mary loved Jesus. She was fortunate to know the love and

fulfillment that comes from loving Jesus. A relationship with Jesus is

the deepest, most intimate relationship we can have. Women tend to

feel that if they do not have a great love in human form they are

missing something. They close themselves off from Jesus and what

He offers. All they have to do is look to Jesus. Jesus offers

something that cannot be found with humans.

element. With many of us, our faith remains intellectual leaving out the

heartfelt. We know what Jesus did for us, but do not FEEL why He

did it. Through Mary Magdalene we see, it is possible to have this love.

Mary’s love was deeper than a parent’s love for a child. She refers to

Jesus as My Lord, implying her personal ownership of His Love. Mary

Magdalene gives us historical proof, if we seek Jesus in love, He will

reveal Himself to us. All we need to do is pray for a heart overflowing

with thanks and give Jesus our life.

 

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, I am not worthy of your love and compassion. I thank

you for all you have given to me and I offer it up to you in glory and praise

of you and your father. Let me be like Mary Magdalene and love you with

all that is I. Let me find in you what I cannot find in things of this world.

Let me live as one of yours for all eternity. Amen
