What a paradox this day is? It's called Good Friday because it became the day that God redeemed mankind. No more would sin have the rule over us, we could be set free. How? By the sacrificed Lamb of God - Jesus Christ the Messiah. So it was the best day of all times..... yet it was the worst day of all time.
Man killed the Son of God!!!!! Jesus was crucified and died upon a cross shedding his sinless blood for all those who look to Him for salvation. An horrific act of the creation toward the Creator. But yet God in his infinite wisdom and love redeemed us through our own sinful wickedness.
Makes me shake my head in wonder at how good God is!
Today we celebrate his death and burial........ and remember what Jesus' death did for us.
But it's not over yet.
In the space of three days..... every. single. thing. planned. by. hell. for. our. demise. was. forever. turned. upsidedown. We were saved.
Resurrection Morning happened. Jesus rose out of the grave - alive forevermore. forever to be my savior, my redeemer, my healer, my way maker, my miracle worker, my Beloved Lord. Forever.
And nothing can ever take that away. From me.
Makes me smile just thinking about this.
It was the worst of days.... it was the best of days. Good Friday. Take heart..... Sunday is coming!!
