Heard part of a song on my way to work this morning that made laugh out loud – the sentiment, I’m sure, was honest and true, but it just cracked me up. I’ve no clue who was singing – or the name of the song – it was on the Christian radio station about 7:45 Alaska morning time.

The phrase? Talking about the crucifixion – after 3 days . . . you can’t keep a good Man down.

And my laughter? Not so much at the sentiment – because it is true – He arose on the third day – but more because my reaction was so much like my Grandma Abbott would have had – did have whenever my sister and I would rave about the (at that time) new group, the Beatles. She would roll her eyes and bemoan the insensitivities of youth these days.

Yes, I admit, my first thought was on the irreverence – or perceived irreverence of the phrase. But you know what?

I’m ever so glad that the devil could NOT keep THE Good Man down!

It is a GOOD Friday, indeed.
