The Hiddenness Of God

Is God hiding on us?  Seems like it.  Tabernacles devoid of their usual Guest.  No Mass celebrated today. The absence of God. The Burial of God. The darkness of God.  Yet, the light looms on the horizon as the Pascal Moon, now already waning, brightens the morning sky. "We need the darkness of God, the silence of God in order to experience the abyss of his greatness and that of our nothingness which would open up if he were not." (Cardinal Josef Ratzinger). As much as possible, may we create a sense of emptiness during this day so that we might experience the fullness of the Risen Life at the Easter Vigil or Easter Sunday Mass.
Bro. Rene
