#sunday is coming

Sunday is coming… I always feel like the day between Christ’s death and resurrection would have felt so depressingly still. Like nothing could go on for his followers without Him. But he *told* them He would rise, and He did it for you and me! You just have to believe.

“He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.

But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. (Isaiah 53:3-5, ESV)
