Good Friday Picture Post

 

Grace lives in our hearts.

Everyday is a new adventure and an

opportunity to put aside our selfishness

and embrace sacrifice.

Sometimes the days are just fun & in the

midst of living a life of hope fulfilled one

can almost forget the days of darkness &

death that was necessary for us to

appreciate new life & blessed bright light!

At this stage in my life, I feel almost

alarmingly disconnected from the passion

of Christ.

Even in the midst of my hardest days, I still

feel like I am living on Easter morning

daily. 

Yet the only way to Easter is through the

Passion, the suffering, the surrender of the

personal will – a necessary death.

Dear God,

thank you for showing us how

to journey from death to life;

thank you for teaching us to be

courageous even in darkness,

loneliness, and final breaths.

Thank you for showing us

that the story doesn’t end

with the cross but with the

stone being rolled away.  Amen.

Joseph’s first skinned knee

& there were no tears!
