Reflections for Good Friday April 10, 2020

Dear faithful beloved brothers and sisters in Christ,

Today is the day that the Christian Church calls Good Friday. It was the day that the Lord Jesus Christ was crucified and paid for the sin of all who turn from their sin and by faith trust Him alone as Lord and Savior.  We have a precious Savior!

Ephesians 2:1-9

And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 

Though we are not together this Good Friday may our hearts be knit together in the magnitude of the power, love, forgiveness, mercy and grace of our wonderful Savior. Let us bow before the cross,worshiping Him with all of our hearts.

I do hope that you take some time today allowing the following scriptures and song to draw you closer to the Lord. Just scroll down and open them in order.
