Easter Sunday

"On entering the tomb they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a white rob, and they were utterly amazed. He said to them, "Do not be amazed! You seek Jesus of Nazareth, the crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. Behold the place where they laid him."

Mark 16: 5-6

Alleluia!

Happy Easter!

Holy Saturday

"They took the body of Jesus and bound it with burial cloths along with spices, according to the Jewish burial custom. Now in the place where he had been crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried. So they laid Jesus there because of the Jewish preparartin day; for the tomb was close by."

John 19: 40-42

Watch and wait with Christ today. See the dark, feel the cold, and smell the spices. Wait for his wounds to heal and his body to rise again with new life. Wait for victory. Wait for triumph. Wait for joy. 

Good Friday

"So they took Jesus, and carrying the cross himself he went out to what is call the Place of the Skull, in Hebrew, Golgotha. There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, with Jesus in the middle."

John 19: 17-18

Be with Christ today. Stand beside the cross and unite your sufferings with his. Compare your wounds with his and see that they are small, but give them to him anyway. Compare your strength to his and see that you are weak, but give yourself to him anyway. Walk with him, bleed with him, die with him today. 

Holy Thursday

"Simon Peter said to him, "Master, then not only my feet, but my hands and head as well."

John 13:9

Call on Christ today--the same Christ who broke bread, passed the cup, and washed the feet of His disciples. Feel His healing hands. Open your heart and let Him in. Let Him feed you. Let Him quench your thirst. Let Him wash you clean. 

Fast. Pray. Give.

Give Christ your voice today. Say what he would say.

Give Christ your heart today. Love without limit.

Give Christ you hands today. Do what he would do.
