Good Friday


I did a little research on the Internet to learn that this day was originally called "God's Friday" and was later changed to "Good Friday". I also read people mistakenly think this is a day for joy and celebration because of the word "good" when actually it's a day for mourning and contemplation of things that have passed. It is a day to remember how our Lord and Saviour suffered for our soul's sake. On Easter we can all rejoice that indeed he was resurrected from the grave. Just some food for thought today.

Blessings,

Jill
