Today’s Bible Verse

John 3:16

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light.” Colossians 1:11-12

These verses say that you have been qualified to share in the inheritance of God’s holy people.

How did God qualify you?

By adopting you into His family. As a son or daughter of God, you have a share in His glorious inheritance of life, love, and eternity in heaven.

There’s room for more in this family. And your inheritance will not be lessened as more sons and daughters are adopted.

Reflect on the incredible truth that you have been qualified to share in God’s inheritance as His child. How does this understanding impact the way you live and view your relationship with God? Consider how you can invite others to experience this same inheritance, knowing that there is always room for more in God’s family.

The cross wasn’t the end.
The tomb wasn’t the end.

He is Risen.

Today we celebrate because Jesus did what no one else could.
He defeated sin, walked out of the grave,
and made a way for us to have life with Him!

Death didn’t win.
Jesus did!

This is why we celebrate.

Holy Saturday
Today is the day of deep silence. We are in the "in-between" time—after the weight of the Cross, but before the joy of the empty tomb.

The Significance:
Yesterday, we heard the final words of Jesus: "It is finished."

Today, the world waits. Holy Saturday reminds us that even when God seems silent, He is still at work in the shadows, preparing a victory we cannot yet see. The work of the Cross is complete, and we wait in hopeful anticipation for what’s coming next. 🕊️

We observed a sacred shift today. Black represents our mourning and the darkness of the tomb. As the evening approaches, we begin the transition to White—symbolizing the dawning light and the victory over death that is almost here.

We wait with Him in silence now, but we rise with Him on Easter morning
