     Gracious Heavenly Father, we thank You for all the sacrifices You have done for us, on the Cross.
     Lord, as Your body lay in the tomb, may we reflect on the suffering and death. Let our focus be on repentance, trust in Your plan, and preparation for the Resurrection.
     Lord, we acknowledge the pain and suffering of the cross, and all that Jesus was willing to endure, so that we could be set free to offer us the gift of eternal life. 
     Lord, as we move forward, may we follow the example Jesus set for us - to remain faithful, endure the trial, and accept Your will to be done.
     Lord, we trust in Your promise that after enduring the test, we will receive the victor's crown of life that cannot be taken away.
     In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.
