Mary Magdalene: The Dispossessed Woman

On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. (John 20: 1, NAB)

Read and ponder: 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?
  3. 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.

A love for Jesus is based on faith first and needs an emotional 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
