Holy Week 2011

Can you imagine what it would be like to know that this would be the last week of your life here on earth and that you would suffer unimaginable pain and betrayal before moving on the next life to joyously dwell with your heavenly Father forever? Would you be sad, excited, afraid, anxious, apprehensive or a little bit of all of these emotions put together? I imagine that Jesus experienced every human emotion possible during this last week of His human life. From the triumph and exhilaration of entering Jerusalem to the pain of suffering on the cross to the joy and celebration of the resurrection. What a roller coaster of a week! As we remember the final journey of Jesus this week and move through this wide range of emotions we look forward to Easter morning when the promises were fulfilled, our sins were forgiven as Jesus rose again from the dead and conquered sin for us! I pray that you and your family will have meaningful week as you pray and discuss the meaning of the gospel stories and the joy of Easter morning! Read one of the gospels this week with your children and relive the most amazing story ever told! There is no greater joy than becoming closer to God along with the people that you love the most- your family!
