The Divine Crash

Dear Jesus,

Today, it begins. Today is when everything came to a screeching halt and there was no other way to save those you love.  I can imagine the pain of having my friend betray me, I know that kind of pain that causes because it has happened to me but I am not like You, I ditched those friends, You forgave those friends and made them breakfast.

Tonight You’ll be arrested by men with no backbone.  They will come at night while You are praying with weapons because they were afraid of the crowds during the day, but you knew that.  You saw it since the beginning of time and you still went through it.  Thank you.

By Friday evening the sky went dark, the curtain tore, and you were dead.  This I don’t understand.  I don’t know why, would do this.  You have the power to come off the cross and you didn’t?  I don’t really get it.  I would have jumped off with the first tap of the first hammer, but thankfully your not me and I’m not you.

Saturday, I can identify with Saturday.  You’re still dead and your followers don’t know what to do, they feel a mix of abandoned and hopeless.  I get that and I know what it is to feel like You are far from me.  I understand the disciples, when I don’t know what to do next I go back to what I know. Sometimes it is fishing, sometimes it is just doing my thing the way I want.

Sunday…..Sunday is coming.  We’ll talk about Sunday when we get there, because Sunday is coming but we couldn’t have Sunday without Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.

- Amen
