Holy Saturday

This was a day of darkness, confusion, pain and death. Those folks who sat at the foot of the cross had no idea what was coming. We do. And yet it is good to recognize this time so that the Joy of Easter has even deeper meaning for us.

However ~ we do live beyond the event. I woke this morning to an email from a friend in Japan telling me what a glorious Sunday morning it is and wishing me a Happy Easter. Yes, it felt "early" ~ and it was also a reminder that no matter how bleak and dark things seem for us, somewhere there is resurrection and it is already Easter. ~ with blessings
