O risen Lord, your body was part of your power, rather than you a part in its weakness. For this reason you could not but rise again, if you were to die - because your body, once taken by you, never was or could be separated from you even in the grave. I keep you most holy body before me as the pledge of my own resurrection. Though I die, as I certainly shall die, it only means that my life is changed, for I shall rise again. Teach me so to live as one who believes the great dignity and sanctity of the material frame in which I am lodged. Amen.
