The mystery of Christ's resurrection is a real event, with manifestations that were historically verified, as the New Testament bears witness.Reflection: A real live human being was killed and then rose from the dead. This is not a myth or symbol. Jesus didn't return as a ghost, or merely live on as an inspirational memory. He really rose from the dead. The more honestly we wrestle with that, the more firmly we will believe it.
- CCC No. 639
Prayer: Jesus, help me to really know you and to experience the power of your resurrection.
