They sealed Him in the grave
And that
Was that
And soldiers sent to guard
Stood back
To back
All through the second day
All Hope
Seemed black
Till on that Sunday morn
They heard
A crack
The tomb was opened wide
To show
The fact
That Jesus Christ was free
From death’s
Dark Pact
And Mary heard His voice
It echoed
Back
To tell the mighty news
And that
Was that!
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”—and that he had said these things to her. John 20:18
Seven Words Our Savior Spoke
Seven words our Savior spoke
As He was dying there
Three words of comfort gently said
Three words He cried in prayer
And one He humbly asked “O How I thirst”
When they gave Him vinegar
Then Father forgive they do not know
What they have done to me
And to a broken dying thief He said
“In paradise we’ll be”
As Mary and John drew close to Him
His closest friend and mother
“Remember” He said “From this day on
To care for one another”
“My God – My God O why have You?
Forsaken me this way?”
He cried on that dark hill
Next “It is finished!” They heard Him say
I have done all your will
Then finally “Into your hands”
He prayed for His race was done
“I’m coming now to you My Father
Death defeated the victory won!”
Peter Caligiuri March 2020
For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world. John 6:33 ESV
When I was a boy I loved the smells coming from the kitchen when my mom baked bread. I could hardly wait for her to hand me a warm slice slathered with butter right from the oven. We need to ask ourselves if we are also longing to know God like that. Are we eager to come into His presence and receive a fresh word from Him each day? No matter the answer to that question now is the time to set our sights again to that Easter morning when Mary came to the tomb and became the first to see our risen Lord;
The Bread of Heaven!
Monday’s loaf was When the angels sang
And shepherds knelt And the Heavens rang
On Tuesday Mary dedicated Him
In the temple like a lamb Who was without sin
At the Jordan On Wednesday Jesus was baptized
And the dove descended On the bread of life
Thursday’s loaf was when He broke the bread
And He blessed the cup And bowed His head
Good Friday’s Bread was given for us
And His blood poured down The rough wooden cross
Saturday’s silence Was the bread of sorrows
As He lay in the tomb Waiting for tomorrow
Then on Sunday’s dawn He came as Heaven’s Bread
The stone rolled back And He rose from the dead!
