Years ago a wise friend introduced me to the concept of "the day in between"...
The incredible sacrifice and sorrow on Good Friday...yesterday
Not yet the overwhelming joy of Easter...tomorrow
time to reflect
to remember
to be thankful
to wrap my mind around the truth that no nails were needed on the cross...
His great love would have held Him there
the day in between
look ahead with hope
We have an absolutely beautiful day here in LA today--and somehow the last week has been filled with something beyond joy: I'm actually aware of having hope. Maybe it's finally getting my own room all pretty; maybe it's planting flowers in the side garden. But I know that sharing your struggles, & sharing my struggles with you, have contributed mightily toward that blessing. Thank you, my friend!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully written, beautiful sentiment. Thanks for the reminder, Kathy.
ReplyDelete"Time to reflect, to remember, to be thankful"...oh yes.
