because we know that death could not hold Him and come Sunday we will get to celebrate Gloriously because we know that death can not hold us!

I have often just kind of cruised through Good Friday because Easter is what it is all about, right? No, rising from the Dead was the easy part, what Jesus went through for us starting on Good Friday until his resurrection on Easter is what is so powerful. The pain and sacrifice is nothing we will ever know.
I tend to take Good Friday for granted because I know what happens. We were leaving the house tonight and the Sunset was just so beautiful I started to think how it must have been for Mary, the Disciples, and everyone that was alive then.
There was no celebration there was just darkness.
As I looked at the sunset, that my iPhone does no justice

A song that I loved when I was young but have not listened to in years just started playing in my head and what an interesting perspective of Good Friday it is.

Thank you!

O God, who for our redemption gave your only-begotten Son to the death of the cross, and by his glorious resurrection delivered us from the power of our enemy: Grant us so to die daily to sin, that we may evermore live with him in the joy of his resurrection; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Yes, thank you! Your phone did a great job!

Amen.
