“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Friday; March 21, 2008

 

          Many people around the world speak of today as being “Good Friday” and honor it as the day the Jesus was crucified.  In a sense of irony; how the world could anything having to do with the execution of the perfect and sinless Son of God be “good”.  The answer is found in what happened a few hours after His death – the good is found in His resurrection.

          As we think about the “goodness” of today, I am reminded of a passage of Scripture that notes, “… we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28).  Interestingly, the manifestation of this verse is found in the death and resurrection of Jesus. 

          Are we going through tough times in our lives?  If so, have we ever considered what God is willing and able to do with them?  If God can produce spiritual healing through heinous murder, anything is possible.  As we worship this weekend, let’s not just look for the salvation of the cross; but, also see it’s lesson about God’s power in our lives!

          Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
