"It's Friday , but Sunday's Coming"


It happened one dark, gloomy Friday 2,000 years ago. The world's Savior was nailed to a wooden cross on a desolate hill overlooking Jerusalem. The disciples and followers of Jesus were down and depressed, they must have thought it was all over. And then came Sunday morning. The sun's rays lighting up the bright blue sky. Tears turned to joy as those who loved Jesus found out He was alive again. It was Sunday morning and the world's Savior was back
 
Your probably wondering what this Easter story has to do with the Christmas season we are now in. For some christians, it may mean everything. There are those who are having a joyous Christmas this year, and then there are those who are not. For many people this Christmas season, it may still be Friday for them. Sunday morning hasn't come yet
 
Two days ago i was on the Daytona Beach boardwalk handing out salvation tracts and ended up praying with two homeless guys to accept Jesus as their Savior. For these two guys, its still a gloomy Friday in their lives. They are jobless and homeless. I tried to encourage them that a Sunday morning sunrise is coming to their lives someday
 
You may just be one of those christians who's life is still stuck on a gloomy Friday this Christmas season. You may be dealing with medical issues, unpaid bills, no job, broken relationships, not knowing where your life is going. You may be away from your family this Christmas or no Christmas presents for the kids this year. You may be watching for Jesus to return and wondering just when will He be coming back
 
Whatever issues your dealing with this Christmas season, remember that it won't always be a gloomy Friday in your life. We have a rock-solid, heaven sent promise from the King of Kings - Jesus Christ Himself : Sunday Morning is Coming !!!
 
 
 
have a blessed Christmas ,  Gary
