Good Friday

Earth Day is today, April 22nd. I'm reminded each year because there are so many deals on this day! :) Not only that a friend of mine always comes by my office to give me a plant. (Thanks?) But, I'm proud to announce that the plant he got me last year is still alive! This year's plant looks a bit plastic though but he assured me that this live plant is easier to take care of than the first one. So, we'll see!!

Anyway, I think it's good to observe this day and be aware and to learn to appreciate the Earth and its natural environment. But today is also Good Friday, the day Jesus died on the cross to forgive us from sin. Take some time today to consider the sacrifice Jesus made for us by praying and remembering his unconditional love. When I pause and reflect on this, I'm reminded of just how much God's love for me is! It's abundant and have been amazing! And, the good news to his death on the cross is that Sunday is just around the corner! He has risen! And because He lives we have a reason for tomorrow. Because He lives all fear is gone!
He made the One who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
If you're interested in attending a church service tonight or on Sunday (or forever), you can go here. You can also contact me and I'll be more than happy to take you with me! :) To learn more about Good Friday and Easter, check this out!
