Just For Today . . .One day between . . .4/11/09

Dear Holy Friends,
    There was Holy Thursday or Maundy Thursday as some call it. Yesterday we had Good Friday. Tomorrow we have Easter or Resurrection Sunday. So what is today? Somehow I have a feeling this day was darker for His followers than the three hours the sun disappeared while He hung on the cross.
 
In His Grip, Chandra
 
the day between
 
did they look up at the hill with sorrow
or did they try to stay away
did they slowly find each other
and cling together that day?
were there words of comfort shared
or was there nothing to say?
how did they deal with the fact
they had scattered and run away?
He was dead, the cross was bare
and what had each of them done?
In His hardest moments, His heart breaking
most of them had turned and run.
They knew His promise, he would rise again
but how was that going to be?
He was dead, He was gone, they were alone
what in the world did they do?
May I never forget this day between
He was in the grave for me too.
