(A guest post by Dave...his thoughts on today)
Then you watch him die a horrible death,
We know that Sunday is coming
Have a great Easter.
Imagine if you can,
walking, working, laughing learning
and daily
investing three plus years of your life in the life of another.
Coming
to where you are now willing to believe
that the person you are with
actually is the long awaited Messiah.
Then you watch him die a horrible death,
rejected by the religious leaders of your time
and crucified by the enemy you hoped he would defeat!
Now you wait in
defeat, wondering what to do next?
Will the Jewish leaders come for you
next?
Will you ever trust someone again like you did trust Jesus?
What
was the last three years really about?
What a waste.
We know that Sunday is coming
and we know the "rest of the story"
but the disciples didn't.
Try to put yourself in their shoes (sandals) today.
If you get somewhat
close to their despair
tomorrow will take on a whole new meaning for you.
Have a great Easter.

Great post! One day we will say, "If only we'd known."
What a way to look at it! Thank you, Dave! My devotional for today.
