GOOD Friday! What Is Good About It? Good Friday! Why do they call it “good” it didn’t seem like a “good” day for Jesus. He was falsely arrested, falsely accused and sentenced to die. He was stripped, beaten within an inch of his life, a crown of thorns pushed into his head, given a cross to bear and carry to Golgotha, crucified with nails driven in hands and feet… all for us, dying our death, so we could live His life. He took on our punishment, the sin-debt we owed and was beaten and crucified and in our place, and died a painful and humiliating death. How is this good? It was good, it was great, it was miraculous for us because we were freed of our sin debt with the Father God and given the opportunity for eternal life. There is no good greater than that for us and Jesus was so very willing to go through this horrible day for us, He chose us! He decided for us! It seemed like Jesus truly knew what a “waiting room” is. He waited from Good Friday until Easter Sunday, waiting on God’s Will to be done. In the Garden Of Gethsemane, He waited on God and prayed, crying out to His Father God. He knew how hard it was going to be, the next day. He asked God: Could you take this cup from Me? He sweat drops of blood, that is how stressed He was about bearing the full weight of the sins of all the world. God answered Jesus with peace. Peace is our Green Light. We stop at the Red Light, we wait for peace. We yield at the Yellow Light, we wait for the peace to go through it, in God’s perfect timing. The Karios timing of God, that critical moment of time where the peace comes and we go through the yellow light safely. The Green Light of peace is go, just simply-significantly GO. Jesus knew He got the green light to go forward with the Crucifixion, He knew what He had to do, He came here to die, it was His destiny to die and defeat death, and His waiting was almost over. Is God in our “waiting room”? He sure is. Just like with Jesus, the Father God never left Him, He stayed with Jesus in the Garden Of Gethsemane, as He grieved over what was ahead and as He made the choice to do what God sent Him to do. He bowed to God’s Will and then there was peace like no other. Jesus was ready to face what was ahead because God met Him in the waiting room. Are you in a waiting room, waiting on God? You are not alone, Jesus is with You. Jesus knows about “waiting rooms” He knows about waiting on God’s Sovereign Will to purposefully and timely play out. He knows about the followship of peace, and then stepping out in peace into the "Karios" of perfect God timing. God is with us in our great moments of stress, the waves of chaos crashing on our soul, as He shatters the chaos with His Peace. Jesus said: Not My Will, But Yours be done. He died our death so we could live His life. Jesus did that for us even though we had hurt Him, He loved us like He had never been hurt by us. Jesus knows everything you are feeling in your “waiting room” You can trust Him in Your waiting room. Jesus went to the cross and died and He rose from the dead. It ushered in the greatest transformation ever known to mankind. From death to life. This Jesus, Our Messiah, He is the One Who waits with you in your “waiting room”. He is with You. We petition Him in prayer, and we should seek Him more than we do what we want. Our petition should be all about Him, seeking Him, worshipping Him and letting be and knowing He is God and He will usher in His perfect and good Will for us in our waiting room. Follow the peace, just like Jesus did. Wait on it, His peace and then follow it, where He leads. Wait for the “green light” of God’s peace and then step out of Your waiting room navigated by the Holy Spirit. Just like Jesus did on Good Friday: He waited on God and then He went to the cross, yielded to the Will of God. The “good” in Good Friday was all for us, we benefited greatly as Jesus took on our sin, paid our debt we could not pay and translated our death into His life. Yes, this is good, Good Friday! Good God!

The Love Of Jesus Christ, Our Savior, Our Redeemer, This Incredible, Self-Sacrificing Love Silenced Death Forever! God’s perfect love dealt the death blow to death and all the fear of it. We are no longer trapped in the death of our past, Jesus made a way out. We don’t have to be who we were! Our old history ends with the cross; our new history begins with the resurrection.

#1MinuteEncouragement We believe in God, but do we believe Him when the going get’s tough? Are we willing to grow through with belief, trust, faith when things don’t seem to change, when we are not sure God is hearing us or even cares? Will we chase our feelings, or will we rest in the truth that we know? Read Hebrews Chapter 11 #PrayItUP Lord, Increase Our Faith #HeartTOHeart
