Good Friday


Not much more to say from me, except I've been thinking about my own call.

Would I?  Could I?  If I were called to crawl upon that cross, spread out my arms and let stakes be driven through them, would I be strong enough to fight my cowardice?  

If I were asked to hang from my bones and skin, while my open wounds were picked at by flies and the buzzards loomed, could I resist the temptation to deny the very Being that created me?

If I had to walk away from everyone and everything I loved, in order to save millions I'd never meet, dare my selfish ways to take a back seat?

The good news?  It's already done for me (to say nothing of the fact that I'm not worthy).  It's been done for all of us.  

Spend a minute.  Watch the video.  Lean into it and let your own spirit be stirred by what really happened one Friday all those years ago.....
