holy week reflections

Midst the world spinning around, even the church spins in this moment that links past and future. It takes effort to stop with time, glimpse eternity and feel the weight that is both inherited and lifted in a single moment. It takes effort to stand in the panic in all of heaven and earth and under the earth during the search for the One who is worthy. It is a mystery we celebrate during holy week and on Resurrection day. Confusing and sobering.
A confusion that is rewarded with pain and grace and a peace that comes without understanding. That is, once one is content not to understand.
