Just this last Sunday a young girl ran up to me with a smile on her face wildly waving a small poster in the air. "Pastor Durk," she shouted, "look what I made!" She slowed for a few seconds to lift the poster right in front of my eyes. It was a picture of Jesus hanging on the cross and a bright sun painted in the upper right corner. She was so proud of her painting and so excited.
How excited or enthused are we as we complete our Lenten journey to the cross and get ready to celebrate the resurrection? I don't know about you, but every year I sense that things come crashing together during this week. The joy of the resurrection is already bursting with Easter planning and yet, the solemn time of Holy Week is just ahead.
May God bless you as you see Jesus on the cross and the bright sun of the resurrection coming soon!
Peace,
Pr. Durk
