"Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, Who was crucified." On Easter morning, despite their fears, the holy women went to the tomb to seek Christ - because they loved Him! This is the vocation of every Christian: to constantly seek and love Him more. 'Going to the tomb' is a beautiful description of the Catholic Mass, for the altar mystically represents the tomb. So ask yourself, which is greater: fear you have or your love for Christ? St. Thomas' faith was enlivened by touching the Sacred Wounds, signs of Christ's passion. We must be willing to sacrifice and suffer in order to seek Christ and grow in His love. Yet one can't truly find and love Him apart from the Mass, the Cross.
