The disciples were puzzled of what took place the previous days and the third day is approaching and Jesus had been buried in the tomb. They were mourning and nobody knows what will happen next. They were scattered in different places and waiting what else the Roman and Jewish authorities would do to them. It is possible that there will be crackdown and all of them might be imprisoned and punished and die just like Jesus.
Hopes for a better future is dimmed and many questions remained unanswered in their minds. For now is just hiding and letting things cool down. Reminiscing Jesus' teachings, prophecies, miracles and his personal touch with them. For some Jesus' personality is inscrutable and to a large extent enigmatic. Three years of hearing him teach and interacting with him made the disciples believe he is special and a progeny of God. But what about now, it seems like everything is over, each to his own. The darkness enveloped the tomb where Jesus lay, no sign of life. If is sealed and guarded.
Thoughts and reflections that inspires the soul and life as a whole. It is a venue for creative expressions grounded on the faith dimensions and of creation itself.
