Day 16 - Good Friday

The stillness in the air, the crisp weather and the birds chirping was a day to commemorate Jesus Christ's crucifixion.  Today, 2,000 years ago, the Son of God was beaten, carried his own cross and was crucified. Nicodemus and Joseph took Jesus body and wrapped him in linen cloths with the spices according to the Jewish custom of preparing a body for burial.

Know that Jesus was forsaken by God so that we would never be forsaken.  During this time of pandemic, death, loss of jobs, not being with family or friends, Jesus is with us and He will never forsake us.

After reading the Bible about the last supper, the garden, the crucifixion and the burial, I went outside and took the chalk and drew out the pictures of Jesus so that others as they walked by could reflect on Good Friday.

Hallelujah Christ is risen!
