Next week is the culmination of the Lenten season, and will bring a conclusion to our daily blog updates. I've been giving some thought to how we would approach Holy Week - last year we did daily devotions and even had some imagined daily conversations with one of Jesus' disciples, but I'm not sure what we will do this year.
One thing that both complicates and enriches our situation next week is that it is also Spring Break for the kids. Karen and I will spend part of the week with the kids in our nation's capitol, site-seeing and learning about the geographic seat of our government. Its a trip that we are all excited about (and nervous, and worried, etc).
Be assured that we will still maintain our daily updates. In fact, I can't help but draw a parallel between our journey to the capital and Jesus' journey to the capital of Judiasm in his (and our) day, Jerusalem. Just as we are excited about our touring visit, I'm sure his disciples were also expectant about how their spiritual revolution would be viewed in the big city.
Jesus, we can be sure, was nervous and worried and hopeful, but for far bigger reasons.
