Holy Week: The Tomb

The Tomb




"It’s hard to imagine the anguish Jesus Christ’s followers must have felt after His death. They lovingly prepared and placed His body in a garden tomb. Now, they must face a world without their beloved friend and Master by their side. But He taught them how to show their love for Him in any circumstance, including this one: “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” If we want to truly feel close to the Savior, we must take action and do the things He asked us to do." - https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist/easter-2021/holy-week-day-7-the-tomb


Read Jesus's promise to comfort us: John 14:26-27
Read about Jesus's body being laid in the sepulcher: Luke 23:50-56


#STARTINGTODAY: I'm Walking the Walk 




Song: I Know He Lives 
Artist: David Archuleta 




I don't have to see Him
I don't have to touch His hands
To know that those nails pierced through
Mmh, to save the sinful man
I don't have to be there
Don't have to roll the stone away
To know that He rose from the dead
To overcome the grave

I know He lives
I know He lives
Jesus, the lamb, the great I am
I know He lives

Even in my worry
Even in my darkest hour
His love is enough to fill me up
And lift me higher
And when I fail to do right
I get down on my knees
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
Saving a wretch like me, ooh

I know He lives
I know He lives
Jesus, the lamb, the great I am
I know He lives

Father, I thank Thee
For Your One and only
From the death on Calvary
From the tomb that is empty
I know He lives

I know He lives
I know He lives
Jesus, the lamb, the great I am
I know He lives, ooh yeah
I know He lives
I know He lives
Jesus, the lamb, the great I am
I know He lives, yeah



BONUS SONG!!

Song: The Miracle
Artist: Shawna Edwards

I couldn't decide between the two songs, so I'm sharing both! This song brings tears to my eyes! Jesus truly is a God of Miracles! I am grateful for the miracles He has blessed me with, most specifically this week with my sweet puppy's health!! 🐕💙 


For God so loved the world
That He gave His only Begotten Son
That whosoever believeth in him shall not perish
But have everlasting life
Jesus walked upon the water
He stilled the storm and calmed the angry sea
With His hands He healed the leper
He made the lame to walk, the blind to see
He fed a thousand people with a loaf or two of bread
And when the ruler's daughter died
He raised her from the dead

Jesus is a God of miracles
Nothing is at all impossible to Him
But I know this
Of all His miracles, the most incredible must be
The miracle that rescues me

Jesus bled and died to save me
A price that I could never pay alone
When He rose again, He gave me
The greatest gift the world has ever known
Yes, I can be forgiven every time that I repent
And someday He will lift me up to live with Him again

Jesus is a God of miracles
Nothing is at all impossible to Him
But I know this:
Of all His miracles the most incredible must be
The miracle that rescues me
The miracle that rescues you and me

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In their enth
