Everlasting Calvary by Amanda at Wittingshire.

Amanda writes, “The bottom is sound, because beneath everything–no matter how far we fall, how deep we plunge–beneath everything are the everlasting arms of that “everlasting Calvary,” holding us, bearing us up.”

I’ve always thought of the image of a tunnel, that there is a “through”. No matter how dark or long Friday’s tunnel, there is a Resurrection Sunday coming.

Jesus’ disciples weren’t so sure about that “through”. They left the scene of Jesus’ passion and hid themselves for fear.

But John says, “On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being locked where the disciples were for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them . . . ” (John 20:19)

Then the disciples saw “through” to the other side, the end of the tunnel that is Eternal Joy. Because of God’s Everlasting Calvary.
