Day 40

               A prayer for Good Friday. Lord, we know the story of the cross and the horrible nature of the death by which You were slain. I know that for one moment in eternity, You and Your Father were separated by my sin. The darkness of that day I cannot begin to understand. Thank You for Your willing death, Your forgiveness for those crucifying You, the parting of the curtain to open the pathway to you, the confession of the Roman soldier “Truly this was the Son of God”. How can I express my gratefulness for your unconditional love for me? As l long as the Lord tarries to return to claim his own, the story of the cross remains the most important thing for me to share with my loved ones and any that would hear the story. Praise God for His great love and faithfulness. Amen.
