No apologies
It’s Good Friday, and no, I wasn’t in church today. I probably won’t be in church on Easter Sunday either. Instead, I spent today being with my loved ones, and doing things for the beloved one, which I know is what God wanted me to do. And that is where I will be the rest of this weekend, too - with my loved ones.
Physically, I may not be in church. But in my heart, that most important of places, I remember what He did for me, for you, for all of us today. And don’t worry, satan - you have not defeated Him. Death has not defeated Him. Wait three days and see.
Yes, it’s Good Friday. But instead of meditating on God’s Word, I want to share some words from a non-Christian who told her audience in Singapore last month, “How can I be a Christian? I’m a Jew.”
“We are saints and we are sinners
We are heroes we are thieves
We are all of us beginners
on the road to Galilee”“Mary’s Eyes”
“Here is your living proof
that death cannot be proud
Some say it’s a judgement on us all
I can’t believe that God could be that small”“When Angels Cry”
“It” is AIDS, and “When Angels Cry” was a song she wrote about the scourge, and no, not against it …
Honest and from the heart. Sometimes, I think that’s all God wants from us.
