As we celebrate the resurrection of Christ, I think about
when they crucified Jesus. On that Friday, it was the darkest, most painful,
discouraging day of His life. In fact, it was so bad that He sweat drops of
blood. It looked as if His enemies had gotten the best of Him.
But God had other plans. They put Him in the grave on
Friday, celebrating their victory, but Sunday morning it was a different story.
The grave could not hold Him! Death couldn't contain Him! The forces of
darkness couldn't stop Him! On the third day, He came out of the grave and
said, "I was dead, but now I am alive forevermore!"
One principle that the resurrection teaches us is that God
will always finish what He started. No matter how dark it looks, no matter how
long it's been, no matter how many people are trying to push you down; if you
will stay in faith, God will always take you from Friday to Sunday. He will
always complete what He started in you!
