Rain can fall at the most unexpected times, and it is usually when we do not have an umbrella or some other covering from the rain that we are caught in the midst of a downpour. It is not a good feeling being soak and wet, and it is even more miserable if it is cold.
Yesterday we celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It was a time for us to remember the great sacrifice that He made for us on the cross, and to testify to the world that Jesus is alive.
Today we celebrate Resurrection Sunday. It is the day that we can celebrate, worship, and praise The Lord that He was risen from the dead. It is because of His resurrection that we have faith.
As we are coming to the end of this season of Lent. On tomorrow we will celebrate Easter Sunday. However, we can just imagine what was happening on the Saturday before Easter.
Today is Good Friday. On the surface it may not seem to be so good. This is the day that we remember the crucifixion and death of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
As Jesus is taking this journey of His last days of earthly ministry. He takes time to set up for them The Lord’s supper. A remembrance of who He was and for them to share that meal and memory forever.
It is not a good feeling when we are betrayed by someone we trusted. When we have helped someone and been there for them through thick and thin and to have them turn around and betray us is the ultimate in hurt. Jesus has been with His disciples teaching them and showing them miracles and blessings.
As we have spent this time in fasting and praying it should not have just been a time of giving up certain foods, but it should have been a spiritual journey that brought us closer to The Lord. This should have been a time of getting to know The Lord better than you have before, and a time of building our faith.
