The worst day in history became the Greatest

On the day of Christ crucifixion, disciples were emotionally down, discouraged on what happened to their teacher—he was killed.  So much hope they had in their hearts towards God's kingdom being revealed to the humanity, was gone now.  At that day, it was not only a spiritual battle for Christ, it was a spiritual battle for his followers.  This happened because God had a plan.  It was a disaster, looking at  Christ on the cross.  He was humiliated before the crowed.  Isaiah says, "one from whom men hid their face... Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers" (53:3-7).  This was before the disciples eyes.  Peter, sneaked to the area where Jesus was tortured, became fearful.  Looking at how Jesus was torture, he denied any association with Jesus – this was not a pleasant moment in disciples life.  I just wonder what was the impression of those faces that evening.  What was the evening conversation before they went to sleep.
