"It's bittersweet,".

What does that even mean??

Something is either bitter....or its sweet.

Levi, newest family member.
Right? 

Though, I suppose dark chocolate doesn't fit that bill. It's a little of both.  

It's like awkward chocolate, assuming you've tasted it.  And yes, I just made that up. 
What? I much prefer milk chocolate. (Just saying)

Describing something as bittersweet...is like saying,
"Hey, this is really terrible, but i'm glad it's happening,".

What even...?

Matthew 26:54-

"How then, could the Scriptures be fulfilled?" 
While in the arms of the men there to arrest Him, Jesus asked this of one of those who had been with Him who had cut off a servant's ear, ready to fight for Jesus by sword. (The metal kind).

Jesus reprimanded the man, knowing that in order for the Bible and its foretelling, written BY God, to be realized, He had to be taken to the judges, convicted, and crucified.

Fighting was never in the plan. 

Everything Christ endured...was for us. 

Now that's, awkward chocolate.

If there was one word on Jesus' mind as He allowed Himself to be arrested, rather than praying to His Father for those twelve legions of angels he mentioned in Verse 53 to come swooping in to the rescue,(Matt 26:53), it had to have been the one and only word: 

"Bittersweet".

 Ending one day, to start another.
How's that for bittersweet?
