GOOD NEWS Saturday, May 3:
Acts z::.4, zz-33 | t Peter r:r7-zr / Luke z4:r3-35
The story of the road to Emmaus is a favorite among retreat leaders because they can pair off participants to talk about hopes, fears, and dreams while they take a long walk or find a safe place to sit. l've heard people tell dark secrets and expose long-hidden resentments on such walks. lt seems the act of walking loosens the tongue and allows us to look at scenery while we bring forth the courage to tell what is happening in our lives.
it doesn't surprise me at allthat Jesus makes his first post-resurrection appearance in Luke to two people who are walking and talking. Believing him to be a stranger, the disciples are free to tell everything about their fear, their anger, their dashed hopes, and their confusion over the empty tomb. They are able to be themselves, and Jesus does what they need him to doSo
he listens and hears them.
Then something remarkable happens. He opens their minds and hearts to the revelation of God in Scripture. He gives them a new way of seeing' They are eager to know more. They beg him to stay and share a meal. And, finally, they know him in the breaking of the bread and the breaking open of their hearLs.
Maybe there's a lesson here for us. When we're weary or worried, perhaps we can take a walk on our imaginary road and tell Jesus everything that has happened, let him love us, and let him help us remember the Scriptures. And, hearts lightened, we can know him again in the breaking of the bread. MARY KATHARINE DEELEY sundaybulletin@liguori-org
