Holy
Saturday!
Quiet! Respite!
Peace!---a
façade!...Mankind’s deserving Guilt!
His
Virgin-Mother,
Mary, wept sorrow-tears at the
injustice trial and crucifixion of Jesus.
The earth should have ceased its daily routine;
dawn should not have shown, nor day, nor noon, nor eve, nor dark-night. The
alabaster-pale full moon should have hidden deep in the night.
But, man’s evil sin-of-perpetual lie
allowed the season-time to come, once more. God’s
holy light-of-day did illuminate the purposed-sin perpetrated by man to fulfill His sacred-Word.
While Jesus’ crucified-dead human body reposed within a borrowed tomb,
mankind grieved His loss at their
very hands. Holy Saturday! A
confession-time! Repent! Penance! Redemption!?
“I believe in God-the-Father, Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth…in Jesus Christ, His Son…in the Holy Ghost…in His
church…Saints…Forgiveness…Resurrection...Life/Love! Amen!
And---in
fulfillment of Scripture…Resurrection! Salvation!
Easter sunrise found the
tomb empty---
The Miracle!...Jesus defeated evil-death!
Amen!
I
humble-pray: Dear Lord-God! Father! Son! And, Holy Ghost!
My
sacred Trinity! Thank Thee for unconditional Blessings, myriad
among
them, Life! Love! Forgiveness!
Redemption! Salvation! For
worthy-servants
who humble themselves in Praise! Honor!
& Glory!
An
evil prostituted-kiss from a friend to ensnare our Jesus-man!
30-pieces
of vacant dirty-silver to inherit
death by a hanging rope!
Leading-queries
absent acceptable answers to entrap the Healer!
He bantered
intelligence lighting their evil lies
and falsehoods!
3-times
denied by “Friend-disciple” coward-Peter
“Crow”-man!
They
struck Him daring He identify them but He would not comply!
They
rent his cloak and gamble-rolled to false claim His poor-lot!
Crowned-the-King with a head-wreath of thorns in
abject hate!
A
true-believer offered to carry Jesu;s
heavy-burden Love-symbol!
Nailed
the Savior’s hands and feet to a
splinter cross upon yon hill!
Offered
vile-vinegar to slake His thirst,
pierced his side for blood!
One
thief professed and claimed, “Yes!”
And, thus gained heaven!
“Forgive them! They know not what they do!”
Jesus expired! Amen!
They
interred Him in a borrowed tomb to---Joyous!...Easter-arise!
Mankind’s
lament!---“Not my Jesus!”…”Dear God! Not my Jesus!
Amen!
