Скачать или смотреть God's love will break through: a reflection for Holy Saturday

Joseph of Arimathea, moved by devotion
tenderly lays Jesus in his own tomb
the women watch in grief
Meanwhile, fearful authorities
seal the tomb, post guards
trying to stop what they can’t grasp:
the promise of resurrection
Holy Saturday
a day of waiting
the in-between
stillness and tension
stretched between
death and life
Jesus lies in the tomb
seemingly defeated
His followers mourn
The authorities watch, uneasy
Yet in the hiddenness
God is at work
Jesus enters the silence of death
God knowing aloneness
God knowing dying
What a thought
This speaks to Mary
to Mary Magdalene
to all who sit in the in-between:
grief and hope
loss and life
For those in seasons of waiting
brokenness, uncertainty
a grain of hope remains:
God’s love will break through
And remember
resurrection is just around the corner
