Then Came Sunday

Good Morning, dear Friends and Prayer Partners! This is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it! After a wonderful presentation of Seder meal last night at church, I thought I would just present Luke's version of Jesus' death, on this Good Friday.

From the Promise Bible NLT:

Luke 23:44-49

By this time it was noon, and darkness fell across the whole land until three o'clock. The light from the sun was gone. And suddenly, the thick veil hanging in the Temple was torn apart. Then Jesus shouted, "Father, I entrust my spirit into your hands!" And with those words he breathed his last.

When the captain of the Roman soldiers handling the executions saw what had happened, he praised God and said, "Surely this man was innocent." And when the crowd that came to see the crucifixion saw all that had happened, they went home in deep sorrow. But Jesus' friends, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching.

I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!

Happy Birthday, Daryl!!!

Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
