And They Lived Happily Ever After
I don’t like movies that leave you hanging, or have a disappointing ending. I LOVE the happy ending ones! I’m quite sure that the movie my Life Group and I are going to see tonight will have a happy, encouraging and uplifting ending. We’re going to see “Miracles From Heaven”. I’ll give you a movie review tomorrow!
Speaking of endings…..this is Tuesday of Holy Week aka Passion Week – when we journey toward the ending of Jesus’ life on this earth. We’re moving toward Holy Thursday (the Passover, Last Supper, Jesus washing his disciples feet) and then on to Good Friday, when He was tortured, suffered and died). As despicable as it was……we can still REJOICE. It’s really good news! We know the end of the “movie”. Our Champion, Jesus Christ wins on Resurrection Sunday aka Easter……so, we win!
Right now, life may be tough for you. You might have some health issues, or experienced the recent loss of a loved one. There may be strife in your marriage. You might not have enough money to make ends meet. But, DON”T lose hope! Just when you think the “movie” could get no worse, our Champion will be there because HE LIVES!
And in the end, we win in a big way. There will be no more tears. No more mourning, or pain or even death, but life eternal. Everlasting. The Lion of the Tribe of Judah destroys the enemy once and for all. Just hang on. The end of the “movie” — the last chapter recorded for all to read is such a “and they lived happily ever after” ending. No, actually, it is THE BEGINNING! God wins and those who love and believe in Him will live with Him forevermore! Oh Happy Day!
