GOOD FRIDAY

What is so good about Good Friday?

Nothing about the situation...

But everything about Jesus in that situation.

When the world was at its worst, Christ was at his best.

He created good from evil.

He created Hope from despair.

He created life from death.

He still does.

“Each of us will have our own Fridays—those days when the universe itself seems shattered and the shards of our world lie littered about us in pieces. [...]

But I testify to you in the name of the One who conquered death—Sunday will come. In the darkness of our sorrow, Sunday will come. [...] In this life or the next, Sunday will come.” (Joseph Wirthlin)

.

The world is in a state of “Friday” right now.

But it too is good. Not because the situation is good, but because Christ is good in the situation.

He overcame death. And He will help us overcome this. And everything else we face.

Sunday will come.
