We take much for granted. As you walk through this week, consider the gift of the death and resurrection of Christ. Because if there had been no Good Friday or Easter Sunday….
You would have no church
There would be no Holy Spirit resident in our hearts
Funerals would be the final farewell
Guilt would last forever
Good News would be absent for all
Life purpose would be absent
Prayer would be futile
Reconciliation with God would be impossible
The evil one would have the final say
Evil would not be mitigated by God’s love – anywhere
There would be no New Testament
The failures of our lives could never be redeemed for a greater good
Suffering would have no meaning
Future hope would be non-existent
The One Friend we can always count on would be absent
Love motivated by Jesus would be non-existent
There would be no final justice
It would be a life without Jesus
There would be no Easter
Take time this week to reflect. Good Friday and Easter Morning are the game changers in human history - and in our own history.
