Today is Holy Saturday, and it is the Passover Sabbath. All is quiet to the human eye.
The scene from TPOTC that struck me the most was just a little one - some of you may not even remember it. It is where Jesus looks at Mary, and with a little choke in His voice says "Behold, I make all things new."
That is indeed what He did, and what He is continually doing.
Today, we recollect, as it says in the Creed,
"He descended into Hell"
He went and personally escorted those waiting for his Sacrificial offering out of darkness into the light of His Heavenly Father. He claimed them as His chosen, just as He desires to claim us.
Will we heed Him? Will we accept the gift He offers us?
