On Good Friday (April 22nd) we remember that Jesus died for us, sacrificing His life that we might be saved. His resurrection came on the third day after His crucifixion; Easter is Sunday April 24th.
We must also move quickly into the resurrection mindset, so we can become the alleluia people once again. If we dwell on grieving because of His suffering and death, then we limit celebrating that Jesus reconnected us into the family of God. Don’t let Good Friday keep you down, Jesus wants Easter Sunday to lift you up!
I love the quote from Max Lucado -- "Your place in heaven was more important to Christ, so He gave up His so you could have yours."
