Good Friday
By Barbara
Heard part of a song on my way to work this morning that made laugh out loud - the sentiment, I’m sure, was honest and true, but it just cracked me up. I’ve no clue who was singing - or the name of the song - it was on the Christian radio station about 7:45 Alaska morning time.
The phrase? Talking about the crucifixion - after 3 days . . . you can’t keep a good Man down.
And my laughter? Not so much at the sentiment - because it is true - He arose on the third day - but more because my reaction was so much like my Grandma Abbott would have had - did have whenever my sister and I would rave about the (at that time) new group, the Beatles. She would roll her eyes and bemoan the insensitivities of youth “these days.”
Yes, I admit, my first thought was on the irreverence - or perceived irreverence of the phrase. But you know what?
I’m ever so glad that the devil could NOT keep THE Good Man down!
It is a GOOD Friday, indeed.
