saturday.

today we're reading Matthew 27:57-66. 

read today's text

There's Good Friday. 
There's Easter Sunday. 
What about Saturday?
We often skip over today in the rush of the Easter season. 
We're excited for Jesus to be alive (trust me, I am too). 
There is, however, some significance in today's reading. 
Whether the Pharisees believed that Jesus was going to resurrect on the third day or not, they still knew something was going to happen. 
Something about this makes me so excited. 
Knowing that there is no stopping the power of the Holy Spirit. 
Knowing that God is on the move whether they know it or not. 
Knowing that their preparation for tomorrow is a sign that there's more to the story. 
Knowing that they got ready. 
​And still they were about to be blown away.
