Good Friday

Good Friday. Good because why? Jesus suffers and dies. How is that good? Suffering and death do not sound very good to us. Good Friday worship service is a painful recounting of the difficult sufferings of Jesus. It is designed to bring people to a deep appreciation of what Jesus did for us. While we are repulsed by selfishness, our souls are deeply touched by generous acts of grace. He that has been given much, loves much.

Good Friday. It's good for us. Because in the death of Jesus, a relationship is made right. Our sins are forgiven and our relationship with God is restored, healed.

Pause sometime today and say "thank you." To say thank you to God is the beginning of living the Christian life.

It's a beautiful but painful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
