Oh, how Jesus must have suffered knowing that one of his disciples was a traitor. Judas willing to sell his immortal soul for a financial transaction of 30 pieces of silver. The equivalent of $19.28 today.
Or on the Mount of Olives, laying the future all out for his disciples, yet they not even being able to stay awake to pray with Him. How terribly alone He must have felt.
Then came the trial, the horrible scourging and stumbling through the Genneth Gate and along the Via Dolorosa carrying on his weary and wounded shoulders the heavy cypress cross bar. And finally, Golgotha – wind swept, lonely Golgotha.
The gathered crowd no longer shouting hosannas as He was crucified and died. Then it was all over. The Master - dead. No heart beat. No hope. All that was left, a borrowed tomb and frightened followers.
Ask any one of them what kind of a week it had been up to that moment and they would tell you without hesitation, “Terrible! Positively awful. Pure chaos. Couldn’t have been worse.”
That’s right, no one would be saving palm fronds as souvenirs.
And that was what it would all have remained; a terrible, miserable downer of a week best forgotten. A dream become a nightmare…except for an unbelievable, astounding, awesome Resurrection.
And, yes, if this site or the One A Day site has met any of your needs share it with a friend.
