I was so delighted when Tammy gifted me with this beautiful wreath!

She made it with her on little hands! 😃♡

I just love it.

Jesus willingly offered Himself once for all to atone for the sin of the whole world.

Hebrews 7:27

Before the foundation of the world was laid, God, in His divine sovereignty, planned to send His own Son to the cross to be our Savior.

The devil claimed a victory that afternoon, but only so Jesus could win victory forever.

It Is Finished.

At Calvary

The Baptist Hymnal No. 138

1. Years I spent in vanity and pride,

Caring not my Lord was crucified,

Knowing not it was for me He died

On Calvary.

2. By God's Word at last my sin I learned;

Then I trembled at the law I'd spurned,

Till my guilty soul imploring turned

To Calvary.

3. Now I've giv'n to Jesus ev'rything,

Now I gladly own Him as my King,

Now my raptured soul can only sing

Of Calvary.

4. Oh, the love that drew salvation's plan!

Oh, the grace that bro't it down to man!

Oh, the mighty gulf that God did span

At Calvary.

Refrain:

Mercy there was great, and grace was free;

Pardon there was multiplied to me;

There my burdened soul found liberty

At Calvary.

Good Friday

Today we pause to remember the sacrificial love 

 that brought us 
forgiveness instead of punishment.

 A Love that brought us 
hope, 
truth, 
freedom 
and forgiveness. 

Thank You Lord Jesus

“Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain.

John Piper

🎝Alas! and did my Savior bleed
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?🎜

At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!🎝

Good Friday, a day when Christians commemorate Jesus Christ's crucifixion. 

So why is it called Good Friday?

According to the Bible, the son of God was flogged, ordered to carry the cross on which he would be crucified and then put to death. It's difficult to see what is "good" about it.

Some sources suggest that the day is "good" in that it is holy, or that the phrase is a corruption of "God's Friday".

Hope your Good Friday is happy and blessed.
