Good Friday
Tumblr media
The more you think about it, the worse it gets.
No part of the Passion Gospel, the Gospel for Good Friday, has any hope.
Even the tender moments – Jesus asking John to take care of his mother, Joseph and Nicodemus making sure that Jesus has a proper burial – they’re just people dealing with the fallout from death.
You know what Joseph and Nicodemus are thinking about while they’re wrapping Jesus’ body up for burial? How much this sucks.
And whether the Romans will stop at killing Jesus. Or will they, and other followers of Jesus, be next?
The more you think about it, the worse it gets.
You know what Joseph and Nicodemus aren’t thinking about? How anything good can come from this.
Much less how God is already using all of it to do more good than either of them, or anyone on Good Friday, could ever imagine.
And yet, you and I know, that’s exactly what’s happening. Because you and I know something that Joseph and Nicodemus don’t know. Not on that worst of Friday’s.
They don’t know that Sunday is coming.
But that’s how it is, when you’re where they are. When you are right in the middle of the very worst.
When you and I are right in the middle of the very worst, there is nothing that human eyes can see to tell us that it’s ever going to get any better.
When that’s where you are, the only open question is whether it’s going to get worse.
In the middle of everything that you are dealing with right now – whether it’s death or illness, divorce or the end of a friendship, job loss or financial problems – while you’re waiting to see whether you’ve hit bottom or if it’s going to get worse. You get Joseph and Nicodemus. You are right there with them.
The more you think about what you’re dealing with, the worse it gets.
There’s nothing that our human eyes can see to tell us that anything good can come from what you’re going through.
And yet, you and I know, that’s not true.
Because you and I know something. Something that’s easy to lose sight of when you’re in the middle. Something that’s hard to hold onto when you’re scared.
But it doesn’t matter. It’s okay if we lose sight of it. Because it’s still true. Even if we’re scared. 
Today is Good Friday. And Good Friday shows us that none of it, not even the very worst, can hold down our God.
Because Sunday is coming.

"It's like a love affair, but not in a gay way"
Julian: I agree with you, 100%! [...] The more I meet Paul in later years, the more I can see that, from him.

Isso, chora...
Agora termina de chorar... Já terminou? Agora abre os olhos, porque Eu estou abrindo um caminho novo no meio do deserto. - Te diz Deus.

Quote
Many Christians, with utter irony, worshipped Jesus the Scapegoat on Sundays and, on the other six days of the week, made scapegoats of Jews, Muslims, other Christian denominations, heretics, sinners, pagans, the poor, and almost anybody who was not like themselves.

Forgive : "To this end was I born"
John 18:37 - King James Version
Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then ? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

(Exodus 3:11-12)
One of the things I find interesting about the life of Moses is that he went from a man of great significance, to no significance, to even greater significance. Who he was in Egypt was nothing compared to who he was in God. In Egypt, he took orders from Pharaoh, but in God he was the one giving Pharaoh orders.
But before Moses became that great man of God, he had to go through a season of being a nobody. Highly educated, but now watching over sheep. Use to royalty, but now living in the wilderness. Privileged his whole life, but now average like all the rest.
Without a doubt this had to have been the worse part of Moses' life. But it was there, in his insignificance, where God was preparing him for greatness. Before walking in his divine calling, the greatest honor Moses had was being in the same room with Pharaoh, but in his divine calling he was greater than Pharaoh, and the highest honor Pharaoh ever had was to being in the same room with Moses, only he just didn't know it.
When God is working on you to prepare you for what He created you for, you will have seasons of insignificance. But God is working on you in ways you just can't see or detect. He's emptying you of self and filling you with His spirt and all the necessities you'll need to carryout your calling.

'Fun' Facts about Mask:
At the end of the War of Eras, right before he went home, his Fierce Deity mask was shattered when he got hit really hard in the face, which broke both the mask and his nose. Since he was wearing the mask when it broke, the Fierce Deity sort of lives in his mind now, Mask can sometimes hear his voice. He can still draw on the Deity's strength and power, although he cannot fully transform. (He tried to once, after he went home, and that's what burned the Deity's markings into his face and turned his eye white. He has not tried since because it hurt, and he's too scared to try again.)
He was blinded in his right eye during the war due to a strike across his face, there's a large scar through his eye, however when he tried (and failed) to transform fully into the Deity after the mask broke, his eye was somehow healed. It is fully functional again, he can see out of it just fine, even though there is a massive scar over his eyelid that makes it hard for him to fully open that eye sometimes. The eye is completely white, but it works just like his other one
Malon is the only one back home he's told everything to. She knows quite literally everything he's been through because he's told her (after a lot of coaxing and promises she'd believe him). They're still working out their relationship, Mask is completely in love with her but hasn't yet made a move to ask her out. (Malon will end up making the first move.)
Mask and his Zelda are close friends, they meet up at least once a month to talk. His hyrule doesn't really associate MASK with the title "Hero of Time", even though he is, so to them he's just some weird kid the queen really likes
Has an insanely accurate internal clock. He may not know the precise time (he couldn't tell you if it was 4:07 pm), but he is aware of the shift of every hour, which freaks out the others a bit
He misses Navi so much it hurts, and Proxi feels how badly he misses her, so she often sits on his head to try to comfort him. It works a little, nothing will ever heal the hole in his heart Navi left, but he appreciates her gesture, and he loves her too. The years between the War of Eras and LTTC were hard for him because he missed Proxi as much as he missed the other friends he made
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK THEM :)
