THE SATURDAY IN BETWEEN

Gazing out from large glass doors, my attention was drawn to a Mommy and Daddy Quail scurrying across our patio. 

It’s Spring and the babies that once followed them, have gone on their own and a new family will soon be here. It reminded me of the significance of this resurrection weekend. 

Just like baby quail, the disciples followed Jesus everywhere. He was their master, teacher and friend. Wherever He went, they followed.

Just like the baby quail the disciples were left on their own when Jesus went to the cross. They were left to carry on the legacy of Jesus and the incredible gift of salvation He left each and every one of us. 

Today, is the Saturday between Good Friday and Easter Sunday. It has always been a sort of somber day for me. I don’t make any plans and it's usually a stay at home day to reflect. It’s a reminder of what the world would be like without Jesus.

What would my life look like if I didn’t carry Him in my heart every day?
What would it be like if I couldn't cry out to Him and ask for help?
What would it be like if I had no one to depend on?
How would I feel if I had no hope?

It makes me sad that some people refuse to acknowledge Him today and the gift of life He so unselfishly gave. I just can’t imagine walking through difficult seasons in my life without Jesus walking beside me. To never know His grace, love, compassion and faithfulness would mean a lifeless unfulfilled life.

Today, is a reminder that it was the only day (since Jesus‘s birth), that He was NOT in this world. 

But joy comes in the morning!

Tomorrow HE rises. 

Tomorrow HE lives.

Tomorrow JOY comes!

If you’re feeling hopeless and alone this weekend or you’d just like to know more about who Jesus is.....I would love to share with you what He has done in my life. 

I know I’ve been called to carry on the legacy of my Grandparents (Mutti & Papa), along with my cousin Cynthia. God has given us an incredible platform through the Live BOLD Series (www.livingbold.org) to do just that! 

May God continue to use our influence for His Glory!

Happy Easter!!
