According to Mayan calendar, today might be the last day for all of us. Whether you believe in this or not, the reality is that each of us, sooner or later, will get to experience our last day - my last day, your last day. For some it WILL be tomorrow. Nobody knows. For some it was last Friday - the day that will go into history as the one which broke all our hearts.
Jesus' last day was also on a Friday a couple of thousand years ago - the Good Friday, also called Black Friday in the Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition (which has nothing to do with the day after Thanksgiving shopping frenzy Friday observed religiously by many Americans) . The good news is, that's not where the world ends. It is a fresh, new beginning for Him, and for each of us, if we would simply receive the free gift of eternal life... welcoming Him into our lives, knowing Him, loving Him, and learning to love others the way He loves us.
Because of Him, each one of us can look forward to the day when all pain, all suffering, all sorrow, all hatred is done away with and we can be with Him face to face.
His last day is a doorway for our first day of life that is life indeed.
