19: From Sacrifice to Redemption: The Profound Meaning of Good Friday

On this seemingly paradoxical day, we grapple with the notion of ‘good’ in the face of an innocent life taken. But it’s precisely in this sacrifice, this selfless act, that we find the profound depth of God’s love for us. His nail-scarred hands tell a story of love beyond comprehension. He bore our transgressions, embraced our guilt, and offered us redemption. His suffering on the Cross wasn’t an end but a bridge back to grace, back to Eden. Despite the jeers, the mockery, and the cruel methods of His crucifixion, He breathed His last with words of triumph: ‘It is finished.’ Every promise fulfilled, sin defeated. The very breath that spoke life into existence was willingly surrendered for us. And just as the grave couldn’t hold Him, neither can our sins define us. Today, we remember His perfect sacrifice. The crown of thorns, once a symbol of mockery, now stands as confirmation of His divine purpose and identity. Let this day remind us that no matter our past, our baggage, or our sins, it’s the Pilot who secures our landing place. Through His sacrifice, we are freed, redeemed, and given hope eternal. So, why is this day called GOOD? Because an innocent man died so that we might truly live. Let us bow in gratitude and proclaim His kingship, for His Kingdom alone shall stand.
