Steve Grunow<\/a>: <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>There is no equivocating. Jesus Christ is risen from the dead- and he rises from the dead in his body in his blood- he rises in the flesh. This is what we witness to today, what we celebrate, what we Christians believe. There is not for us Christians a retreat into comfortable symbols or banalities about ethics. Our faith is uncomfortable, for God in Christ does what he should not be able to do and asks us to believe and do what the world deems impossible.<br>\nThis uncomfortable faith in God in Christ, who becomes man, who dies and rises from the dead, becomes an oath we take in the Sacrament of his Body and Blood. In the Eucharist, the divine life of the living Lord Jesus is given to us and before we receive that life, we testify that we believe in him, in his resurrection, and that he lives, not just in memory or symbol, but also in reality. Jesus Christ is alive now and forever.<br>\nOn this, our Sunday Morning, the first day of a new creation, the day when all humanity received from God the news that this world is not all that there is for us, we turn away from the graves of modern doubts and give ourselves over to faith in the Lord Jesus, in whom we place all our hope, in whom we profess our faith.<br>\nAmen!

How do we know we believe? How do we know we indeed have faith? Because we have seen his hands and his feet in the poor around us. He has shown himself to us in them. We start by loving them for him, and we soon love them for themselves, each one a unique person, most special!<br>\nIn that last glorious chapter of St. Luke, Jesus told his followers, \u201cWhy are you so perturbed? Why do questions arise in your minds? Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see. No ghost has flesh and bones as you can see I have.\u201d They were still unconvinced, for it seemed too good to be true. \u201cSo He asked them, \u2018Have you anything to eat?\u2019 They offered him a piece of fish they had cooked which he took and ate before their eyes.\u201d<br>\nHow can I help but think of these things every time I sit down at Chrystie Street or Peter Maurin Farm and look around at the tables filled with the unutterably poor who are going through their long-continuing crucifixion. It is most surely an exercise of faith for us to see Christ in each other. But it is through such exercise that we grow and the joy of our vocation assures us we are on the right path.<br>\nMost certainly, it is easier to believe now that the sun warms us, and we know that buds will appear on the sycamore trees in the wasteland across from the Catholic Worker office, that life will spring out of the dull clods of that littered park across the way. There are wars and rumors of war, poverty and plague, hunger and pain. Still, the sap is rising, again there is the resurrection of spring, God\u2019s continuing promise to us that He is with us always, with his comfort and joy, if we will only ask.<br>\nThe mystery of the poor is this: That they are Jesus, and what you do for them you do for him. It is the only way we have of knowing and believing in our love. The mystery of poverty is that by sharing in it, making ourselves poor in giving to others, we increase our knowledge of and belief in love.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>10. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\">\n<p>\"Do not abandon yourselves to despair.

They kept watch that night, together with Mary. And she, the Virgin Mother, helped them not to lose faith and hope.  As a result, they did not remain prisoners of fear and sadness, but at the first light of dawn they went out carrying their ointments, their hearts anointed with love.  They went forth and found the tomb open.  And they went in.  They had kept watch, they went forth and they entered into the Mystery.

The darkness of the previous days is driven away the moment Jesus rises from the grave and himself becomes God\u2019s pure light. But this applies not only to him, not only to the darkness of those days. With the resurrection of Jesus, light itself is created anew. He draws all of us after him into the new light of the resurrection and he conquers all darkness. He is God\u2019s new day, new for all of us.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>14. From <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/article\/416394\/easter-ephesus-nr-interview\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">my interview<\/a> with Mother Cecilia of the Benedictines of Mary, currently on the top of Billboard\/Amazon\/itunes: <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Q: What is \u201cHaec Dies\u201d all about? <\/p>\n<p>A: \u201cHaec Dies\u201d is sung at least ten times on Easter, from Psalm 117:24, translated as \u201cThis is the day that the Lord has made.\u201d It is the Easter song, as Easter is the day that has changed all our days since the Resurrection took place. It is truly the first day of the new Creation, when all the world was made anew by Christ\u2019s rising. We sing three versions on the recording: one in English, and two in Latin, one in four parts and another in eight parts.   <\/p>\n<p>Q: How about \u201cExultemus et Laetemur,\u201d another one of your tracks? <\/p>\n<p>A: \u201cExultemus et Laetemur\u201d are the very next words after \u201cHaec Dies\u201d in Psalm 117, so I am glad this was the next question! This is the Day in which \u201cwe will rejoice and be glad!\u201d We included the lovely Medieval chant in the album which recalls the events of Easter morning. It is a cry to all Creation to remember Who it is that renews it. This is only natural in supernatural love: We want even His inanimate creation to proclaim His praise.   <\/p>\n<p>Q: Why is the \u201cRegina Caeli\u201d so important? <\/p>\n<p>A: \u201cRegina Caeli\u201d is the hymn to Our Lady, sung or said four times a day at Eastertide. It was a prayer that was traditionally first sung by the angels, telling Mary to rejoice because her Son who was dead is now risen.   <\/p>\n<p>Q: Who do you sing for?<br>\nA: A priest once gave the whole community a salient piece of advice some years ago: Sing for an audience of One. I might extend that a little, because while we truly sing for Our Lord, it is in the company of His Mother, and all His angels and saints. One young sister joked before the recording fame that if anyone ever asked her what she did, she would say: \u201cI am a vocalist. I sing each night for the King of Kings! It\u2019s a full house each night.\u201d That is really the spirit. We give our voices first to our Maker. That others now hear it is incidental. I do not mean that in a high-handed way. It is beautiful that others can hear these songs of love without our going out to them, but we are singing first for Him Who first loved us. In time, and after we are able complete our planned construction project for a proper Church, we hope to welcome anyone who wishes to hear the Divine Office sung eight times each day.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>15.
