Good Friday

 Happy Good Friday
Because today, if you are a Christian, is a good, albeit somber, day.

"I'm coming to tell you this, that the heavens of heavens can't contain Him, let alone some man explain Him. You can't get Him out of your mind. You can't get Him off of your hands. You can't outlive Him and you can't live without Him. The Pharisees couldn't stand Him, but they found out they couldn't stop Him. Pilate couldn't find any fault in Him. The witnesses couldn't get their testimonies to agree about Him. Herod couldn't kill Him. Death couldn't handle Him and the grave couldn't hold Him. That's my King."

Shadrach Meshach Lockridge
from "That's my King" (full text here)

Beauful and so true! Death could not hold Him! I hope you have a wonderful Easter, Marley. :-)
