I took confession with a different priest than I usually do this week. Although normally one doesn’t talk about said sacrament, he said something to about coping with adversity that is important to remember.
“You are going through your Good Friday”, he said to me, “But remember, every Good Friday has its Easter.”
These words really hit me, It reminded me that at any time Christ could have decided to take up the challenge to come down from the cross but did not because he knew the suffering of Good Friday would lead to the triumph of Easter.
It is a lesson I will endeavor to keep in my heart.
