I can't imagine how the SATURDAY after Christ's crucifixion must have felt to so many. It had to be a day of much anguish... questioning... fear. I wonder about those who'd stood by the side of Jesus as he spoke the words to bring Lazarus back to life... to bring the daughter of Jairus back to life. I wonder if those people even considered the possibility that their Lord could also come back to life? Or were they overwhelmed with the knowledge of what was at that very moment. There was a separation on that day. And, that separation was horrible.
I was able to capture this photo during the Good Friday service at my church which was lead by Alanna Story. What a blessing that service was!! |

DeleteYou are so right. I am so glad that the congregation where I serve still celebrates Holy Saturday. So many people are indeed in the midst of Saturday and have not arrived at Easter yet.
