It's Friday but Sunday's coming

I forgot about this song until the famous sermon by Tony Campolo was referenced last week in church. Since then, the words, "It's Friday, but Sunday's coming" has been ringing through my head.

When I have to jump through hoops to get my kids the services they need. I remember... It's Friday, but Sunday is coming!

When I am reminded that my 8 year old is operating at a three year old level. I remember... It's Friday, but Sunday is coming!

When life doesnt' turn out the way I think it should. I remember... It's Friday, but Sunday is coming!

It's Friday, but Sunday's Coming by Tree 63
Nothing's sacred, the days are cheap
Truth is thin on the ground
Still our prophets are crucified
Nobody believes we're stumbling
It's Friday, but Sunday is coming
Someone's saying a prayer tonight
For hungry mouths to be filled
Someone kneels in the dark somewhere
And darkness is already crumbling
It's Friday, but Sunday comes
Sunday ~ Hallelujah ~it's not so far, it's not so far away
Sunday ~ Hallelujah ~ it's not so far, it's not so far away
Broken promises, weary hearts
But one promise remains:Crucified, he will come again
It's Friday, but Sunday is coming
It's Friday, but Sunday is coming

Easter... it's so easy to get caught up in chocolate bunnies, dying eggs and jelly beans (yum... jellybeans). But behind it all, the reminder that we can't do it without God is the most important thing! He died. For me. For little me - who screws up more times than not. He went through all that yuck. For me.
