Sing a song of joy to Christ as He enters into Jerusalem!
Each one of us is there, present, during our Lord’s Passion in Jerusalem. The Paschal Mystery reflects on us, touches us, sanctifies us. This is ongoing, from our conception in God’s eternal Will, to our today’s life, and will be so until our death and resurrection!
Indeed, “when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit. […] The earth quaked and the rocks were split. The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.” (Mt 27:50-52).
Not only are we present to these events of Jesus’ Passion, but so are all the inhabitants of Jerusalem – Jerusalem, city of peace which however endlessly tears herself – and all humankind, in the loving gaze of our Lord Jesus Christ, as He enters in the Holy City.
