A Good Weekend indeed. This Easter season, I indulged myself in the truth of what Jesus Christ did for us during that fateful time in history that we commemorate today. In the past, I would think about the crucifixion, perhaps I would watch Passion of the Christ – whatever it took to become mindful of the occasion and not be desensitized to it. On Easter Sunday mornings, I would dress really pretty and cheer because, yay, He has risen. Yay, He is alive.
This year, I find myself contemplating more the time in-between the Christ’s death and His resurrection. The thought was brought on by the second verse of the song “Forever” by Kari Jobe. It says, “The Son of God was slain in darkness. A battle in the grave, the war on death was waged”. Wow. So what really happened during that dark time – the time in between when Jesus Christ was murdered and the moment He lived again?
