Good Friday

        Did you know that you are apart of the greatest love story ever told? This goes beyond better then a Nicolas Sparks story. Did you know that someone loves you so much that He died for you? God couldn't stand the thought of losing you to sin that He sent His Son to divide and conquer sin. There on a cross, that He was nailed to, He conquered sin. He did it for you and for me. When He went to that cross there was nothing going on now in our lives that He didn't know about. no matter what our past is like, He is still pursuing us. You can be so stressed out that you can't see past what is going wrong, He longs to take that burden. No, life is never without difficult times, pain, and sadness, but we were promised we wouldn't have to go through it by ourselves. That is what the cross was for. It is so much more then a good man dying because people were annoyed with Him. This about chains breaking and the veil being torn, so that we may be one with Christ! He died for the forgiveness  of sins.

 Let us not forget what our Savior did on the cross once a year, but everyday. Let us not lose our wonder when we think about what the cross means. It is a sign of freedom from sins. We all deserve the death penalty. Yet, Jesus took our place. In all honesty, I doubt I could take someone else's place, knowing that they deserved death. I deserve death. I have been hateful, prideful, and so many other things. Yet, He was willing to die for me. Just take a minuet and really think about that. No matter what you have done, He has already taken it to the cross. Let's not spew hate to those who around us, because when Jesus died, He did not die with hate in His heart, but love for ALL.
