The Pain Before the Joy — Thoughts on Good Friday

As you go through your current trials, remember the Lord endured unimaginable hell on our behalf.  And through it all He kept His focus on the goal — the atonement for man’s sins and making a way for us to have a relationship with Him.  It makes this a Good Friday indeed and all the days ahead no matter what comes.

Jesus to His disciples:

32 “Behold, the hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. 33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” — John 16:32-33
