It's Friday, But Sunday Is Coming!
Author unknown


Friday is the day on which for thirty pieces of silver Judas sold
his master;
but Sunday is coming.

Friday is the day on which Peter denied Christ three times,
swore he never knew Him;
but Sunday is coming.

Friday is the day soldiers made a crown of thorns for Jesus,
mocked him, spit on Him and humiliated Him;
but Sunday is coming.

Friday is the day the mob preferred armed robber Barabbas to
the Son of God Jesus;
but Sunday is coming.

Friday is the day, the Roman Governor, tried to wash away his
guilt in travesty of Justice;
but Sunday is coming.

Friday is the day Jesus prayed in agony, "my Father if it be
possible let this cup pass from me";
but Sunday is coming.

Friday is the day that same voice cried out, "My God, my God, why
hast thou forsaken me?"
but Sunday is coming.

It's Friday. Christ is dead. The disciples are scattered. The devil
is triumphant. Darkness is everywhere.
but Sunday is coming!


Sunday has come! And we celebrate life and not death; we
celebrate the victory of good over evil.

Sunday is glorious. The condemned is now the Lord of lords.
God, who seemed to abandon Jesus on Friday, raised Him up
by His power. He gave Him a name above every other name, that
at the name of Jesus, every knee must bow.

In your Fridays, remember God has not forgotten you. He would
not turn His back on you in the dark nights of your soul. Do not
fear. As it was with Jesus, so is it true for you.

Sunday is coming!
