And when I'm down.
He placed my feet on the miry rock,
And love me the same,
yesterday, today and forever.
It's Good Friday today, and perhaps many are unaware of what this public holiday meant. Three days later, which is Sunday, and it will be Easter. But to many people, it's just a day of Easter eggs, chocolates and bunnies. These are just misconceptions of on two important days.
In the gospel of Matthew, Jesus was arrested. Between Barabbas and Jesus, the people wanted Jesus to be crucified. He was nailed on the cross, mocked by the soldiers. His clothes were divided among them and casted lots on. The people mocked Him for He claimed that He was the Son of God but He was unable to save himself from the crucification.
" You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the son of God, come down from the cross."
" He saved others but himself He cannot save..."
There were many things that the people said. But in the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying " Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is " My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?"
When Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and his spirit was yielded up. Then the temple was torn , earth quaked, rocks split, it was destroyed. It was Jesus death and many who saw what had happened feared greatly and said " Truely this was the Son of God!"
He was wrapped in a clean linen cloth and was buried in Joseph's tomb.
Three days later, there was a great earthquake, an angel of the Lord descended from heaven. He told Mary, who was going to see Jesus, that Jesus was not there but He has risen from the dead.
Indeed, 3 days after Jesus' resurrection, He rose up from the dead.
Matthew 28:19-20 " Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

"Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties."
