I'm not sure how many darkest hours Jesus would say He had, but this was probably one of them: Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine...and he was in such agony of spirit that his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood." One of Christ's attributes that I'm glued to the most is that He's been where we are. There are lots of "gods," but my God put on skin and endured the darkest hour. People are still enduring the darkest hour. Mine was when I got locked up in a psych ward. It really sucked. Do you know that I lied on a cot all night long not giving up because Jesus didn't in his darkest hour? Apart from knowing this, I would have. That's why we need to invite people to church next weekend. For anyone in their darkest hour, it's on Easter at church where they can know they aren't the only one; where Christ's darkest hour will be remembered; and where His rising from it...will be celebrated.

The Darkest Hour

YES! Thank you for posting that verse!
It is all I can THINK of right now.
I second that notion to reach out and make this a Resurrection Day (Easter Day) a new begining for someone that God has brought into your life....whoever might be reading Heather's blog.....
Just think...this could be the begining of a NEW YEAR for someone and you could be God's whisper to them....just by making the small suggestion or invitation!
I KNOW that God is about to begin working wonders in my friend's life. It's so crazy! Monday night she called me after so many months of being out of touch...she told me of the things that had been happening in her life....of the lessons that she has been learning the hard way....and of ALL of the people in this world, she called ME????!!!!
Well...she may not know it yet, but I've been RIGHT THERE...and I KNOW God is about to ROCK her world just like he did mine.
She's got SOOOOO much POTENTIAL!!
And, she will be atteding the Good Friday Service, as well as Easter service this weekend!!
All I did was suggest....come to find out...God had been nudging her heart for weeks about it!!!
I LOVE IT!!!
God SO-O fills my life with these front row seats ALL of the time!! I'm so blessed to be able to see him at work so often, in my life and in the lives of others!!!! =)
It's just a suggestion...an invitation....and it could be the difference between another year lost, or a BRAND NEW START for that person you are brought before.
:) As always, awesome post!!
Love it!
Miranda, now that's one cool, energizing, uplifting, encouraging, motivating, exciting, compelling and propelling comment. You go, girl! Keep up your enthusiasm!
