He is RISEN Yet Why Do We Still
Sleep?

The GREATER the SUFFERING, the
GREATER the GRACE. Let us keep salvation
at the forefront of our minds and at the doorsteps of our hearts. We sit and see Jesus sleeping on the boat as
if unconcerned therefore why are we? We
must sleep next to Him and awaken in patience when He does. For it is His Will which leads and His grace
which supplies. The Apostles became
frightened on the boat because they took their eyes off of Christ and chose to
focus on the Storm. We ought not care
for the body but rather only focus on his.
He rises that we might rise above our human nature and live supernaturally
therefore we must thank Him for our daily Cross.
Love conquers death. Those who suffer more have more grace to get
them through the trial. Padre Pio once
said that he who is sick has Christ twice in him. The trial is never bigger than Jesus. The Helper is with you, therefore, forget
about yourself and focus on God and others.
Look for those daily opportunities to be an extension of Christ’s
Love. For it is in suffering that our
hearts expand in Selfless Love as we further drift away from self. Meditate upon this. He has given you so much yet why do we give
so little? Do not live today thinking of
what might go wrong tomorrow. Think to
your past and when has He EVER failed you?
Live for today living in Faith.
Continue on in your prayers for those carrying heavier crosses than
you. Be compassionate.
He is RISEN yet why do we still
sleep? Arise! O’ Christian and behold
You’re Redeemer! He has walked out of
the tomb of self to show you the path.
It is out of the darkness of self that we all must walk. The caterpillar must enter into the tomb of
his cocoon only to take the skies as a beautiful butterfly. Jesus, our model, who showed us that we must
mystically die unto ourselves likewise shows us on this Easter how we are to
walk out of the darkness of the tomb.
There were FEW waiting for Him on Easter morning in Faith. Thus you must ask yourself , “Will I be one
of those FEW still waiting for Him likewise at the end of my own life.
Why do those still stay sleeping in
the Novus Ordo. This seemingly is a
great mystery. For there are a growing
number who now see clearly yet why don’t the masses? Whatever the answer may truly be stay focused
on Christ realizing that it is a great grace that you do. Keep praying for those who do not and offer
up your sufferings. For it is with these
Crosses than can open up the eyes of the blind and keep souls in Purgatory
advancing in the Fire and Light. God is
coming in His Justice with a great alarm clock to wake those who still yet
sleep in error and darkness. Yet, we are
called to preach the true Gospel of Christ admonishing and exhorting those who
do still sleep. This Easter let us be
resigned to walk out of the tomb of self with Christ and be the Light in an
ever growing dark world, Amen
