Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
John 14:1 KJV
It’s good Friday today, and on this day as a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ I often get asked the question: “how is it called good Friday, when today alot of bad things took place?”. I usually respond with some cliche answer or give them a theological response to hype up Jesus. It dawned on me a long time ago thay Jesus requires more than just a cliche. He requires more than a preachy, theological response. He requires more than just a response to unpack the story of Jesus.
HERE IT IS…
“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
John 14:27 NLT
So here is my response when I am asked “why is good Friday so good, when bad things happened on this day?” Because what he did for me and gave me is more than anything than anyone or anything can give me. The song writer says, “If I lost everything and didn’t have anything
And you were the only thing I’d still have everything”-
Bri (Briana Babineaux) –
He is my everything and that’s why today was a good day…
