Good Friday reminds us that before Jesus wore the crown of glory, He chose the crown of thorns. His suffering wasn’t an accident. It was the path He willingly walked so that redemption could be ours. The thorns show the cost of His love; the glory shows the victory that love accomplished.
If it ever feels like God is distant or removed from our struggles while we're down here suffering, Good Friday reminds us that our leader and King suffered alongside us. He understands us deeply, and His sacrifice assures us that we're never alone.
Sometimes the simple reason we have fears and insecurities concerning our relationship with God is because we're dealing with bad information. This message comes from a direct source that reveals what God really says about you and him.
