Good Friday

Today is Good Friday, the day of which Jesus Christ was crucified and died for our sins. Only 5 days ago, on Palm Sunday, was he praised and worshiped. How quickly the people turned against him. This can relate to our own lives, when we are quick to blame God and quick to turn against him. Throughout our lives, we have many difficulties and desires, so we pray to God to help us and give us things, but when he does not answer, we are quick to anger and begin to lose faith. But just because God does not answer every prayer, does not mean that he doesn't love you. God knows whats best for you and has a plan for you. He has something better in store.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jeremiah 29:11

Have faith and do not turn against God when your prayers are not answers. God knows best and has plans to give you something even better. God knows what you want and need and he will provide. He has already provided the greatest gift of all, we are already blessed by his amazing grace.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God

Ephesians 2:8
