On this darkest day of the Christian calendar, I think about the disciples’ misery, their fear, and the hopelessness they must have felt.
They had no idea what the next day would bring, and how much better and brighter it would be.
I think there’s a lesson in that for all of us when we mourn, when we are afraid, and when we lose hope.
