Our incredible story continues with new chapters of the events after the Resurrection. Peter has healed a crippled man and takes this opportunity to proclaim Christ and instruct the people at the temple in Jerusalem. Yes, he chastises them for their rejection of the Christ and His death at their hands, but he offers them solace: "Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away, and the Lord may grant you times of refreshment and send you the Christ already appointed for you." The Psalmist extols the glory of God. Our Gospel bring us the cherished story of Jesus appearing to his apostles , and calming their fears about His presence: "Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself." Today is the feast day of Saint Isidore, Bishop and Doctor of the Church, whose Optional Memorial is superseded by the weekday Solemnity of the Easter Octave. It is so like our dear Lord to understand our human fears and condescend to allay them.
