Good Friday
As I sit and ponder about the significance of today, and what to write, Frank Turk over at his blog has said it better than I could. So read the story of our Lord's journey to the cross, and notice in the Gospels how God ordained this to be, through the means of those like you and I, in crucifying Christ on the Cross. Grieve your sins appropriately which put Him there, for they grieved and offended a holy and righteous God, commanding a punishment be given for them--but praise His Son for dying for your sins on that cross so long ago, so that you might live eternally with Him.
Make no mistake: redemption was accomplished. The fruits of that act (our continuing sanctification and our glorification) have yet to be played out in time, but they will come to pass.
A Good Friday, indeed.
