Mary Magdalene of the Heart, by Tanya Torres
Love is Alive;
Peace is Possible
In the moment of speaking and seeing, in the moment of revelation and connection, here is a passing on, an apostolic ministry, that goes to Mary Magdalene. Jesus sees her, and knows who she is, and whose she is (John 20:11-18).
Tell Them
Breaking through the powers of darkness
bursting from the stifling tomb
he slipped into the graveyard garden
to smell the blossomed air.
Tell them, Mary, Jesus said,
that fear will flee my light
that though the ground will tremble
and despair will stalk the earth
I hold them firmly by the hand
through terror to new birth.
Tell them, Mary, Jesus said,
the globe and all that’s made
is clasped to God’s great heart
they must not be afraid.
Tell them, Mary, Jesus said,
smelling the blossomed air,
tell my people to rise with me
to heal the Earth’s despair.
