Think About It
You’re only as good as your private standards.
When was the last time you gave a task your absolute best even though nobody but you would know about it?
-John Maxwell
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish
but have eternal life. John 3:16
Now what? We dare not forget what we learned or set it on the shelf of our mind until lent of 2026. What should our response be? Our response should be one of praise, thanksgiving, and worship for each of the exchanges and the resurrection.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish
but have eternal life. John 3:16
Jesus was punished that we may be forgiven.
Jesus was wounded that we may be healed.
Jesus was made sin that we may be righteous.
Jesus died that we might be made alive.
Jesus was made poor that we may be rich. (prosper)
Jesus was shamed that we might receive glory.
What is good about Good Friday? Why isn’t it called Bad Friday? Because out of the appallingly bad came what was inexpressibly good. And the good trumps the bad, because though the bad was temporary, the good is eternal.
