Good Friday

As we gear up for Easter weekend, it’s easy to get lost in the excitement of dying eggs, filling baskets, new outfits, and hunting candy-filled eggs. But I want to take a moment to branch out from my typical posts and reflect on the reason we celebrating at all.

What we call Good Friday is the day Christ was tried and crucified. The day that God sacrificed his Son so that we would be free from the eternal consequences of our sins. As a mother,  I can understand a little what kind of sacrifice that actually is. It is difficult to wrap my mind around the idea that God could love us so much! That He would do so much for people so undeserving!

Sunday, the story gets even better…
