The First Goodbye

Good Friday

 

The first goodbye

"Good Friday" — from "God's Friday." A farewell written into the calendar.

"Goodbye" — from "God be with ye."

Every goodbye echoes the first one.

Every time we say goodbye, we are — unknowingly — saying God be with ye. The word carries a blessing older than we remember.

The first Good Friday was April 3, AD 33. The calendar has returned to that exact date several times since — 1914, 1925, 1953, 1964, 2015, and today: April 3, 2026.

On a day the world calls "Good" because God said goodbye — and promised to return — perhaps every parting word we speak carries more weight than we know.

HISTORIANS SUGGEST: APRIL 3, 33 AD IS THE EXACT DATE OF JESUS' DEATH

Palm Sunday

 

Palm Sunday

Hosanna (save us from political oppression)
Jesus came for spiritual rescue, not political.
Rescue from sins, vices & evil thoughts.
The crowd turned on Jesus days later.
Crucify him!
They wanted a warrior on a war horse and got a suffering servant on a donkey instead.

🌿 A River Rises — The Spirit Flows

• Exile doesn’t silence God’s presence—it often deepens it.
• Ezekiel watched hope rise from dry ground: a river flowing from the heart of God.
• Where the Spirit moves, even what feels lifeless begins to bloom again.
• Each of us carries a hidden stream, waiting for breath, truth, and grace to set it free.
• When we grow still and listen, the flow returns—quiet, steady, healing.
• A river rises; the Spirit flows, and life begins again.

💧 Reflection: Where in your life is the river beginning to rise again?
