Passover celebration, Jesus knew that His hour had come to leave this It was amazing to him as it should be to us! He calls himself "the disciple whom Jesus loved" in John 20:2 not because of feeling pride that he was better than the others, but because he valued the love of Christ above all. John, James and Peter were present at events such as the Transfiguration and the closest to Jesus as He prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane. John was one of the three of Jesus' inner circle. We chose the Gospel of John because he was an eyewitness of these events. We'll begin from the night before Jesus' crucifixion because His example of being a servant is so important! Using the New Living Translation, we have taken Bible verses from the Gospel of John highlighting main events of the Easter Story. Understand the following is abbreviated version of the Easter Story to just capture the highlights.

May we never forget that in our blank spaces we have a mighty God that is still in the miracle business. But, it is in this blank space that the greatest miracle is taking place. It’s quiet, things seem hopeless, and it appears that nothing will ever change. Have you ever lived in a “blank space” moment? It is in this blank space that things seem to be quiet and nothing is happening. It is in this blank space of waiting that hope can be found though. Can you imagine how Jesus' followers must have felt waiting those hours and days between the cross and the empty tomb? Waiting is hard! Easter brings hope to our everyday lives as well as for a future heavenly home with God.
