Sin held sway and horror gripped the earth on the Friday Jesus died. Darkness covered everything and everyone. Not the darkness of a spring thunderstorm but a thick, suffocating darkness. Candles must have been lit in homes as people groped about as if they were blind. The earth shook and perhaps groaned as the veil in the temple ripped apart, top to bottom. A deep, abiding sorrow filled the hearts of those who loved Him–His mother, His followers; their hope was gone. Their Lord had died.
They could not know that their grief would be replaced with amazement and joy. They did not know that the Lord would rise from death bringing hope to them and generations to come. But we know. On Good Friday, we look back with gratitude that Jesus suffered and died for us and we look forward to Easter, a new and glorious day dawning and we praise our Savior who is alive!
Happy Easter. Jesus our amazing Lord died for the sins of the world and has risen victorious indeed and continues to show Himself loving, mighty and strong to humanity demonstrating His wisdom and power supernaturally continually as I personally have witnessed globally. To Christ Jesus alone be all the adoration, praise and glory. ~ Paul from https://dreammakerministries.com/
