Today we celebrate the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene, the very FIRST witness of the Resurrection. Her encounter with the Lord Jesus changed her life completely, and having been healed by Christ, she gave her life over to Jesus and made him FIRST in all things. Her faith was unshaken, and even throughout the crucifixion when his disciples had fled, she was present at the feet of Jesus along with Mary, our blessed mother.

We are called to make sure our priorities in life are ordered by placing Jesus Christ as our FIRST priority. May we pray for the grace to truly keep God FIRST in all that we do.
