Life in ChristGospel Reflection based on John 11:1-45
I am the resurrection and the life, says the Lord. An innocent man mounts the steps to the guillotine. He hasn’t led the best of lives. He has seen in himself nothing worthy of honor. But he has exchanged places in prison with the young husband of the woman he loves. He had promised to do anything to protect her and hers. He has saved the man at the cost of his own life.
You may recognize the scene from Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities. As Sydney Carton goes to meet his death, the words of Jesus echo in his mind, what Jesus said to Martha, grieving over the death of her brother Lazarus: I am the resurrection and the life.
When my father died, I wasn’t overcome by grief. That came later. I thought about the promise of Jesus to Mary and Martha. My father, even though he should die, would live. It wasn’t just Jesus that would give him life, but that Jesus was life. It wasn’t just that Jesus would raise him up as he raised Lazarus, only to die once more, but that Jesus was the Resurrection. If you are in Jesus, you are in the Resurrection and the Life. It’s what Sydney Carton learned at last, and what all Christians, even in the deepest sorrow, must remember.

Holy Mass with Pope Francis from Casa Santa Martawww.vaticannews.va/en/pope-francis/mass-casa-santa-marta.pagelist.html
An Act of Spiritual Communion When we cannot receive Holy Eucharist in person
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
Fifth Sunday of Lent March 29, 2020

Prayer to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus
O most holy Heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love You, and with a lively sorrow for my sins, I offer You this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to Your Will. Grant, good Jesus, that I may live in You and for You. Protect me in the midst of danger; comfort me in my afflictions; give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, Your blessings on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.

Let nothing disturb you. Let nothing make you afraid.
All things are passing. God alone never changes. Patience gains all things.
If you have God, you will want for nothing.
