When you live in a Muslim country, nobody mentions Easter so it's easy to forget. In Jordan Sunday is a regular work day and Friday is the Sabbath. So if Easter Sunday is Friday, is Good Friday really Wednesday? I get so confused.
On Sunday we took some time to read about the last week of Jesus' life, his crucifixion, death and resurrection. It's always difficult to imagine the tremendous suffering He went through to pay the price for all our sorrows, heartaches and sins, but we're very grateful that He did. Words cannot express how much we love Him. We feel so honored to have the privilege of representing Him in His work. Next month we will be visiting the Holy Land and seeing where Jesus lived, walking in his footsteps and enjoying the places he loved.
It will be a great "capstone" to our mission.
