after the suffering

opposite
of you
dying peace
worth more pain and sacrifice
unlearning how i was 
fighting the illusion
of meaning
devout, submission
to the selfish
leaves
i have loved

Premium Member And the Cross

And the Cross
Crying in the cruel wind
And they didn’t care
While the Truth
Waited
Silent
For the third day.

GOOD FRIDAY

We all call it Good Friday
It was really good for the sinner
Death won round one
But on Sunday, we crown the winner

His wife sang so bad, he prayed god to make him deaf,
He said “oh God, or let her elope with my chef,
if she goes i will be so glad,
the chef cooks good shall miss him bad,
forgive! if I pray with words beginning with F!

The
Day
When the
Almighty 
Lord perished in the 
Cross to redeem humanity
Washing with his blood the sins committed by nescience
Proferring eternal life to whoever believe in him as personal savior

I

Good Friday dark dawn;
Jesus said: "I AM he", 
Sad world all fall down.

II

Easter Morn bright dawn;
Burning bush I AM said,
"Let my people go!"

III

In the desert bare;
Empty tomb, garden now bloom,
Tears all wiped away.

Sometimes, I've tried lectio divino for the hour before bed
but at this time, or my 1st hour, I may be groggy of head!

So I try to opt for a daytime slot when I feel my awake-est
like 3pm the Hour of Mercy, when He felt most forsake-est!

If betraying Jesus, Judas had hope!
If Peter dared to avoid Judas-rope!
If Rome and Judah ever knew Jesus!
If all loved him for no selfish wishes!
If Good Friday a day that's very good!
If Risen Lord before each of us stood!

Premium Member A Bad Friday For Jesus

What humans call ‘Good Friday’
Should be named
A ‘Bad Friday‘ for Jesus
Our brother
Who bravely died for our sins.

Premium Member Fp 1 That Day of Days

once 
   on Good Friday
they looked
       upon love,
at first 
          silence
a silence
        so black
        so dense,
then the sound..
a gentle
          wind-
after ..
  comes the dawn

Hamlet Hero

He born in a hamlet
 He became favorite
 He healed leper(s)
 He is said helper
 He shed blood 
 For the sinfully dead
 When they saw HE star they celebrated CHRISTMAS
 When HE was crucified we commemorated GOOD FRIDAY
  When they saw empty tomb the world celebrate EASTER

Premium Member The Passion

Good Friday
We stood for the long gospel
And when it was our turn.
We shouted with glee,
'Crucify Him,Crucify Him'.
How cool was that?

Forever more,we are the bad guys.
And will happily burn forever in Hell
We are made of stern stuff 
If we can burn forever without end.

Premium Member Sacrifice and Religion

A given Religion, 


Does not depend on the number of people that believe in it


But


On the number of people willing to sacrifice their lives for it!

Good Friday: At age thirty three
You suffered and died just for me

April 9th, year 2001
You joined Him at age twenty-one


*Inspired by a wise and comforting letter sent by a lifelong friend in April, 2001 who gently reminded us the time of year it was...I still have the letter
