“At the same time” - the heartbreakingly beautiful paradox of the Passion

Tomorrow is Good Friday.

Then Easter comes shortly after.

And Jesus went through His Passion to get there.

He sweated blood. He felt more physical pain than any of us could ever know. He felt more internal agony than physical pain. He died and was seemingly defeated.
