When the women went at dawn to anoint the body of Christ on Easter Sunday, they didn’t know how they would remove the huge stone that closed the tomb. To their surprise, they found the stone already removed. In this meditation we use the homily of Pope Francis in the Easter Vigil in St Peter’s Basilica in 2024 to consider how:
- There are many stones in our own life which may seem like insurmountable obstacles
- Over the years these problems, by the grace of God, have been solved
- The Resurrection of Christ fills us with hope that our present problems will also be solved
