Jesus died on Good Friday 2,022 years ago. Our entire calendar revolves around this day and his death. So why is it good? Because that day showed how GOOD God is. He didn't have to let his only son die on a cross for us. He didn't have to care that most of us were bound for hell. But he did. Jesus had the courage that night to suffer and die and bear our sins on that cross. He didn't have to do it, but he did. And why did he? To shower his immense love on us. To make the strongest statement that anyone has ever made about how much he Loves you. Forget about greeting cards and flowers, what other person besides Jesus has actually died for you? No one. But Jesus did. "Even while we were still sinners Christ died for us." The Bible says, "For the joy set before him Jesus endured the cross." What joy? Having us in heaven with him. He knew the Only way to get me or you into heaven was to die for our sins. We couldn't pay God back for all the evil we did. So Jesus paid it all and all to him we owe. Don't ever underestimate how Much Jesus did for you and how Much he loves you. He would do Anything for you. How many people can you say that about? Only Jesus.
