Saturday, April 7th, 2007: Holy Saturday

Three days. He laid in a tomb for three days. What can you do in three days? You can't build a house, but you can fly to the other side of the world. You can't conceive life and have a child, but you can celebrate a birthday or wedding. I guess there are lots of things you can do and some you can't. But look what God did in three days. He looked death straight in the eye and beat it! He overcame the one thing that none of us can ever beat. He took what was thought to be impossible and made it the cornerstone of our faith. We could take our whole life and we still wouldn't be able to overcome death. Yet he did it in three days. As we continue through this time that he laid in the tomb, may we keep watch for tomorrow morning when Jesus will be victorious and do more than we ever could… in just three days!
