In His Words, not mine

"Noli me tangere." These words were uttered to the Magdalen when met by the newly resurrected Jesus. (John 20:17). Mary Magdalen saw a beatific vision, if you will, and she lived. Even though Jesus had "not yet gone to his father" the power of His touch may, at this moment, have been too much for the Magdalen to bear. The meaning of my blog then, is not that I wish not to be touched, nor that I wish to not touch Jesus. I hope it will convey how we can desire God, and yet may only experience him in hints.
