 It's Easter tomorrow so I thought we would jump ahead to Matthew 26, just before Jesus was crucified. He went to Gesthemane to pray and took Peter, James and John with him. He told his companions to sit and watch while he moved away and prayed. Jesus said, my heart is so heavy with grief, I feel as if I am dying. In the Evangelical Heritage Version it says, My soul is very sorrowful, even to the point of death. The New International Version says, My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death.
I think we gloss over the horrors of what Jesus endured on the cross because it makes us uncomfortable. It was, after all, our sin that put him there. We can't even imagine the physical, emotional and spiritual torture that he endured.

 These are a very quick and easy project. Just make sure you have plenty of newspaper around because the spray paint goes everywhere. I bought the fabric spray paint at Spotlight and the fabric bags at K-Mart.
As Easter approaches, here is a look at the first Easter from the book of Luke. This looks a little fiddly but you don't need any special equipment. You end up with a unique gift box that you can fill with chocolates. |
