📖 Verse of the Day

Reflection:

On this Holy Saturday, we find ourselves in a space between. The crucifixion is behind us, the resurrection ahead. It's a day of quiet contemplation, a moment to pause and ponder the magnitude of what has transpired and what is yet to come.

In this gap, Job's words resonate: "I know that my redeemer lives." Amidst his own profound suffering, Job clings to the unshakable truth that his Redeemer is alive, that hope endures even in the darkest of circumstances.

As we navigate the uncertainties and challenges of our own lives, Job's declaration becomes our anchor. It reminds us that no matter how bleak things may seem, our Redeemer lives. He is at work, even when we cannot see it.

This is the promise that sustains us on Holy Saturday and every day - the assurance that in Christ, death never has the final word. Our Redeemer lives, and because He lives, we too can face tomorrow with courage and confidence.

So today, as we sit in the space between, may we hold fast to this truth. May we, like Job, proclaim with bold faith: "I know that my redeemer lives." And may this hope be the light that guides us, now and always.

🙏 Prayer of the Day

Heavenly Father,

Today, my heart sits in this quiet space between sorrow and hope. The shadows of Good Friday still touch my soul, yet the promise of Easter resurrection whispers to my spirit. Help me, Lord, to truly grasp the magnitude of your sacrifice, the unwavering love that conquers all.

In my own moments of uncertainty and pain, let Job's words ring true – "I know that my Redeemer lives!" May this hope be my anchor, my guide, and my source of unwavering trust in Your perfect plan.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

🖋 Quote of the Day

“Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain. What was once foolishness to us—a crucified God—must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world.”

— John Piper
