Saturday of Week 15 in Ordinary Time. St Mary Magdela

She saw Jesus standing there though she did not recognise him.
Jesus said Mary, she knew him then and said Rabbuni.
We peer uncertainly over a spiritual rim.
We listen , we hear, but we cannot see.
If he walked down the street.
Would we know who it was.
I fear we would want to be discreet.
Would we just walk on or pause.
So Mary of Magdela went and told  the disciples.
That she had seen the Lord.
And us , would we just keep our heads buried in our bibles.
Or would we with acclamation go overboard.
Would we say repent.
Or just remain silent
……..
If we saw Jesus
First , would we recognise him
Then would we speak out
…..
See John 20 : 1-2, 11-18
