Good Friday

This is a day --set aside--for us to remember & reflect upon what happened on this day to make it 'good' --for each of us.

                        1 Cross  plus  3 Nails  equals 4 given

Because of God's love for us--that's a 'good' thing--He sent His only Son--'good' for us again--to die on the cross...taking on all
of our sins (ways that are not pleasing to God) that we might have forgiveness of all of our sins, direct access to God the Father,
to be called children of God, friends of Jesus Christ, filled with the Holy Spirit, joy, abundant life on earth and eternal life with God--the Father, Son & Holy Spirit.
What part of this ---for us--is not 'good'?!?   

There is a little song that I learned years ago--the refrain of the lyrics still resound in my heart.

'He paid a debt He did not owe:
I owed a debt I could not pay;
I needed someone to wash my sins away.
And,now, I sing a brand new song,
'Amazing Grace.'
Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay.'

Remember...Reflect...Rejoice!

It is a 'good' Friday!
