“The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭5‬-‭7‬
He lives!!!

The Silent Saturday

Jesus has been killed, taken down from the cross, wrapped up in linens, and placed in a tomb. The disciples flee and hide, worried that they may be the next to suffer the same fate. It's Saturday morning. The sun comes up and a new day has begun. But the Messiah is still dead. He's still in the grave. It's as if a thick darkness had settled in over the hearts of the disciples and the entire creation. Sunday is coming, yes. But the silence of Saturday had to be a tremendous weight for those followers of Jesus. Even today, some 2000 years later, we all have our Saturdays that we must deal with from time to time. Waiting on the Lord isn't for the weak. But it is what we are called to do.

"I wait for the LORD, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope." (Psalm 130:5)

“Opposition is not a sign you’re doing the wrong thing.
Sometimes,
It’s proof you’re finally doing the right thing.”

From today’s Part 5 of The Life Lessons of Nehemiah

Nehemiah Chapter 3 reminds us that the church should never be a place where only a few are involved.
The church is supposed to be a place,
1 Where everyone belongs.
2 Where everyone serves.
3 Where everyone contributes.
4 Where everyone has a role.

Join us Sunday at 11:00 as we continue “The Life Lessons of Nehemiah.”
