"I am the Resurrection and the Life; he that believeth in Me, although he be dead, shall live." John 11:25.
"The search for God is progressive, and must be maintained during our whole life. We must always have a holy preoccupation about finding the Lord, a preoccupation which will make us industrious and diligent in seeking Him, and at the same time confident of the divine aid, since the Lord will certainly take care that we arrive where our own strength could never bring us, because He will do for us what we cannot do for ourselves.
"Every year Easter marks a time of renewal in our spiritual life, in our search for God; every year, we re-ascend the path toward Him in novitiate vitae, in newness of life (Rm 6:4)." (from Divine Intimacy, #140)
Divine Mercy Novena Day #3: Today bring Me all devout and faithful souls, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. Novena prayers here.
I think I finally get it. Jesus conquered sin and death -- won our salvation on the Cross on Good Friday. He rose so that we would know it! That explains why he appeared to those who already believed in Him, not to those who disbelieved, to try to convince them.

Novena to the Holy Spirit
"Wait for the promise of the Father...you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you." Acts 1:5,6
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit, and they shall be created, and you shall renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray.
O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
