Wait for it and watch what I do next.” The day before the earth rumbled, quaked, shook and the sky grew dark. It’s almost as if God was holding His breath and saying, “Trust me. As Jesus died on the cross, He called out, “It is finished.”ĭespite the silence, neither were resting. Jesus died with this conviction: “You will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay” ( Acts 2:27).
Holy Saturday which is the day between Jesus’ crucifixion and His resurrection seems to be remarkably quiet in the Scriptures. But perhaps now that I’ve caught myself in this mindset, I can change it and prepare for Holy Week, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday! What Is the Meaning of Holy Saturday? So, I am approaching Easter feeling unprepared and stressed out during this ongoing pandemic. God and Jesus were both at work behinds the scenes despite the silence of Saturday. But we shouldn’t ignore Saturday or assume it doesn’t have much meaning. We tend to skip over this weekend, especially Holy Saturday as if it’s just another day.
But maybe I should be focusing on deep cleaning my soul! As a mom, I’m thinking of all the extra chores I have on my list as I switch the kids’ wardrobes out of winter in favor of spring, not to mention deep cleaning. I’m embarrassed to say as Holy Week approaches on the calendar, I had been looking at those days as more of a break than anything else.
