Oftentimes those dead in their graves seem more alive to me than those I encounter in life. Almost a year ago I started going to the graveyard every day to pray a rosary. I would walk through the graves and ponder death. It was a good reminder that I'm gonna be there someday soon.
I feel as though I have a relationship with them. It is as though I can feel the desire to be in with Christ in eternity lingering in the air. There is this anticipation and ache for true unity, true communion. Life seems so real here and things become clear. It is almost like I want to be in their shoes and some of them want to be in mine and have a second chance at life. We seem to empathize with each other.
I quickly began to love the people in the graves once I began praying for them. I feel like they are all routing for me as I run towards Christ. Towards eternal life. For some reason, they seem to understand my aches and desires even more than I do. Lord bring all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of your mercy. May the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Prepare me for my hour of death and may I do all the good you call me to while I am here on Earth. Amen.
Christ died so that we could have life. What will the story of your life be about? Go to a graveyard... and pray for all souls.
