It’s hard to think of Jesus being beaten and crucified on a cross as a “Good Friday”. But if it wasn’t for His willingness to die, then he wouldn’t have been able to rise from the dead. And that indeed is good. The fact that He is alive, that everything he said would happen came true, and that he kept all of his promises is a lot to celebrate. I imagine at this time people were waiting with bated breath and begging for Sunday to come so they could see what would happen. Only Jesus, the one true God, would die and go through all that he did for us.

May we recognize and remember what these three days are really all about. ✨
