On Good Friday HE Died
HIS disciples were in despair.
They did not anticipate what was coming.
Because they could not see what was happening.
On Saturday, while they wept, HE fought while they mourned.
HE conquered while they hid in fear.
HE stormed Hell’s Gates.
But just when they thought all was lost, Sunday came, and HE rose victorious!
And what was true that first Easter remains true in your circumstance.
Though you may feel forsaken, and all hope may seem lost, your darkest hour is HIS finest.
You may not see what HE is doing but resurrection is coming.
