April 18th – Luke 23:50-56
It was quiet. The crowds had scattered. The cross stood still. In Luke 23:50–56, Joseph of Arimathea tenderly took the body of Jesus, wrapped it in linen, and laid Him in a tomb cut from stone. The women watched, broken and confused, unsure of what would come next. Hope seemed lost. Silence filled the space where once shouts of “Hosanna” had rung. But behind that sealed stone, God was at work. Just because we don’t see Him moving doesn’t mean He isn’t. Sometimes, His greatest miracles begin in the stillness. Maybe you’re in a season like that. One where everything feels quiet, like nothing is changing. Don’t mistake the silence for absence. God is still writing your story. He’s still bringing beauty from brokenness. He’s still turning graves into gardens. Let this day remind you. Even when all seems lost, Resurrection is coming. Hold on. Trust the silence. Sunday is on its way. And when it comes, oh, what glory will rise. Let your heart wait with hope!
