Good Friday

Today is Good Friday.  Some would say this day was not so good for our lord.  Today is the day we remember he was falsely arrested, humiliated, beaten, stripped and hung on a cross to die.  He did this willingly.  He took God's cup of wrath and drank it down.  This week I've been a bit ungrateful for all the blessings in my life.  I know this because my writing was a bit self-centered and it took me a bit of time to come up with my "gratitudes" at the bottom of my posts.  Today I absolutely know what I am grateful for.  I hope you do, too.

Thank you Johnny Hart

116.  My lord and savior, Jesus Christ
117.  Fellow believers
118.  The freedom to worship my lord without fear
119.  The opportunity to attend a lecture, at the college I work at, about the God I serve, by a professor openly acknowledging his Christianity
120.  Knowing there is a remnant of students, here, that are believers (this gives me hope)
