EASTER: 18 APRIL 2017, GARABANDAL ‘It is finished.’ (John 19) Jesus Christ gave up His Spirit. But, for us, it has started! The Bridge to Heaven, opened. Iesu Christe, Who died, now alive - Raised up. Death razed to the ground. Death has no power – all consumed by God’s love. All hope, growing. The start of new life: Resurrection glory. Dei Patris, glorified by our Saviour, Filium Dei. Heaven met Earth. God freed man by His temporary separation from Innocence – Innocent blood spilled on barren soil – Land now fertile to receive loving souls: Those seeking the Creator Those searching for Love Those searching for truth Those loving their true Father. Death, finished. Hope and life, won forever, with radiant light. Spirits made free; life freely given. Be love in love Be love in praise Be love in thanks Be love in forgiveness Be love in truth Be love in hope Be love in peace Be love in mercy Be love in charity Heart to heart and heart to hope Life from life, made eternal. Amen.
