GOOD FRIDAY

It is Good Friday today.

What's so good about this Friday? Why not other Fridays?

Cause on this day (well not TODAY exactly, but for convenience's sake..), the Son of God who came from Heaven died and redeemed us from our sins.

Now why would He do that? That is another question altogether, but the answer that sums it up is LOVE.

Just as we were tainted by Adam's blood of sin, we were made clean by the blood of Jesus. This day 2000 years ago, a Father's love came through and rescued us from the pits of hell. He struggled and fought through the terrible hunger, the scorching desert sun, the scorn of all people, the hooked flail and whips, the pain of death and the guilt of sin, to reach us who were at the bottom and offer us His helping hand, which is now bloodied and wounded. He did it even with the knowledge that not all would take his hand, nor appreciate His efforts that are unparalleled in the history and future of the universe.

Now why would He do that?


Cause He is Love personified. And that's why this Friday is good, cause He is good.

Would you take His hand?
