An Earthquake and an Total Eclipse


Everyone here is talking about the earthquake of the day before yesterday and tomorrow's total solar eclipse, on the transferred Feast of the Annunciation.

Today is the Octave Day of Easter, Divine Mercy Sunday. Two Fridays ago was Good Friday, the 1991 anniversary of the act of Redemption by Jesus Christ our Blessed Lord.

"Now from the sixth hour (when he was crucified) there was darkness over the whole earth, until the ninth hour (when he died on the cross)." Mt. 27:45

"And Jesus...yielded up the ghost. And behold the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top even to the bottom, and the earth quaked, and the rocks were rent. And the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints that had slept arose...Now the centurion and they that were with him watching Jesus, having seen the earthquake, and the things that were done, were sore afraid, saying: Indeed this was the Son of God." Mt. 27:50-54

Christ is the Lord of heaven and earth. Even they give testimony to His victory of sin and death!

Happy Easter!

Christus resurrexit!
