Use your first name and last initial. A DIFFERENT VIEW OF EASTER I am the 30 PIECES OF SILVER that was given to betray the Savior of the world. I am the ROPE that held Jesus so they could lead him away. I am the WHIP that cut deeply into Jesus body that drew blood. We are the FIST that through anger struck Jesus over and over. We are the HANDS that slapped Jesus in the face. I am the CROWN OF THORNS that sat upon the head of Jesus until he bled from my thorns. I am the PURPLE ROBE placed on Jesus as they made fun of him. I am the BLINDFOLD used to hide who was to strike Jesus next. I am the REED used to strike the body of Jesus as they mocked who he was. I am the SPIT used to insult him as I covered my face. I am the CROSS on which Jesus' body would hang on until his death. We are the NAILS used to pierce and hold the hands and feet of Jesus to the cross until his breath left his body. I am the SIGN put on the cross to represent who Jesus said he was. I am the SOUR WINE offered up to Jesus to wet his lips and quench his thirst. I am the SPONGE on which the sour wine was offered to Jesus. We are JESUS' CLOTHES which the Roman soldiers all wanted to possess. We are the DICE the soldiers used to see who would own Jesus' clothing. I am the SWORD that pierced deeply into Jesus' flesh to make sure of his death. We are the TEMPLE CURTAINS that ripped top to bottom as Jesus gave up his spirit. I am the ROMAN'S TOOL that removed the nails from Jesus so they could take him down from the cross. I am the LINEN SHROUD used to wrap Jesus' body for burial. We are the SPICES that were brought to embalm Jesus, but the tomb was empty. I am the TOMB that was offered to hold the body of Jesus. I am the BIG STONE that was rolled away so people could see the Savior has risen. I am the ANGEL who had the privilege to announce "Jesus Is Alive, he has risen from the grave just as he said he would." Listen, I am the SILENCE which Jesus held all along while he carried out Gods great plan of Salvation. Written by our own Linda L.R.
