The Dignity and Deity of Easter - A Nighttime Prayer
"Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs. At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there." —John 19:40-42 (ESV)
Please Pray:
Father in Heaven, you have created me and clothed me in dignity as your child. Thank you for dying for my sin and coming back to life to one day take me home to be with you forever. Help me live like you and for you. In Jesus’ Name, I pray, Amen.
