Wednesday in the Easter octave Lk 24: 13-35

Jesus is recognizable
Have I ever had the experience of believing that Jesus made myself known to me? With what engagement did I survive the Easter holidays? What was most appealing to me inside?
The Emmaus disciples “told the disciples in the supper what had happened to them along the way, and how did they recognize him (the risen Jesus) by breaking the bread ”(Lk 24:35)? Jesus is happy to refrain from the disciples of Emmaus. He was close to them on the way, but he was still close to them did not recognize them. In the evening, when he breaks the bread, the disciples will know Jesus. Jesus also satisfies our desire for him. He is always with us. He is always close to us. It is always present. Only we are not always with him; we do not always stay with him. Thoughts we run away from Jesus when he wants to explain something to us, advise us, and encourage us. Ours runs away from the heart, and Jesus wants to fill it with peace, joy, happiness. Let’s learn to call: Stay with us, Jesus. Let’s keep Jesus with us, in ourselves. You often do imagine Jesus in your vicinity. In contemplation, let’s take the time to know him to hear, to experience his closeness, and as we read the gospel, imagine him. Jesus is waiting for that. We will also strengthen our relationship with him. Often whether we sit or on the road, let’s have an interview with Jesus. Imagination does not deny reality. In fact, Jesus is still real to us present. Proposal for adoption: More often during the day, let us remember the meeting with the Eucharist Christ.

Thursday in the Easter octave Lk 24: 35-48
The joy of a new encounter with Jesus.
Am I neglecting to meet Jesus? Why does Jesus want to meet me often? What will I do to experience encounters with Jesus more and deeper within myself? Jesus reappears to the disciples at the supper, and they say, “They could not come with great joy to believe and only marveled ”(Lk 24:41). Jesus shows the disciples the resurrected body of the hand and foot. Jew to touch him. He explains everything Moses, the prophets, say about his resurrection and his mission in general. And psalms. Finally, Jesus eats a piece of baked fish. Jesus also wants to awaken us if we have in our hearts doubts about His love, our occupation. But let us begin to do what Jesus wants from us. Where can we experience joy with Jesus? Let’s experience a deeper Holy Mass, the sacraments, let us talk more actively with Jesus.
Let us not deny Jesus a single encounter. Easter “hallelujah” must not sound just for our ears, and it is not enough to say it by mouth. Jesus wants our whole interior, but also our natural life. He wants to give us his peace, joy, all of himself. Proposal for adoption: Put more joy into your formation after Jesus
