The high point of the church calendar is this week. All of it. Not just Easter Sunday. Let us walk with intentionality and not rush to resurrection. God handled death. Don’t be afraid to remember and draw near. This is the way of the cross.
Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking the way of the Cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
