Today we look back and see what Jesus did for us. We are reminded that He hung on the cross to save us of our sins. It is Good Friday. Why is it good, because today He died for you and I. He hung on that cross to set us free from our sins, He hung there to give us hope so that we could keep our eyes on Him. He hung there to break the binds that would hold us down, He hung there so that we could be free from the misery and way we would be.
Today I am reminded how easy it is to be stuck in the past, but Jesus saved us from that. He has set us free so that we can be free indeed. Isn't it time to allow Him to set you free, isn't it time to say He paid the price for me? Today is Good because God gave His only son to die on the cross for me. We can think about the crucifixion as a bad thing, or today we can be thankful that Jesus came to the earth, to walk each day and then in the end set us free.
Being thankful for what Jesus did for us, does not just happen today, but every day. Isn't it time that the holidays not be remembered only once, but thank Jesus each day, thank Him for setting us free each day, because without Him we would be bound, imprisoned and lost. He has brought us freedom, not just on Good Friday, but every day.
Jesus thank you for what you have done for me today. Thank you that you hung on that cross for my sins and thank you for showing me that Good Friday is just a day, but each day you have given me hope to live, hope to be the man you have made me. Let it not just be today that I remember, but each day. Thank you that you loved me enough for your truth. Thank you for setting me free.
Today don't just remember the death, but remember why He died. He is no longer on the cross because He has set us free.
Have a wonderful Friday!
