GOOD FRIDAY
This Good Friday
I want to
share these thoughts from
the
devotional book by
Charles
Spurgeon:
"Is it not strange, the darkest hour
That ever dawned on sinful earth,
Should touch the heart with softer power,
For comfort, than an angel's mirth?
That to the Cross the mourner's eye should turn,
Sooner than where the stars of Bethlehem burn?"
That ever dawned on sinful earth,
Should touch the heart with softer power,
For comfort, than an angel's mirth?
That to the Cross the mourner's eye should turn,
Sooner than where the stars of Bethlehem burn?"
The
reason for Christmas is Easter.
For there to be an Easter,
there
must have been
a
Calvary.
If we
truly want to see the love
that the
Father God has for us,
we must
look at Calvary.
He gave
His precious Son
to suffer
agony,
that we
cannot comprehend,
for us.
How we should thank and Him
for His love and never forget that
"Jesus is the reason for the
season".
Beautiful words thank you Marilyn. Love the wee illustrations you have added
