Good Friday

Tomorrow is Good Friday... yay! I am excited because Patrick is off work, and we have fun plans to spend the day as a family. We will probably dye some easter eggs, play outside, and just enjoy the sunshine. We also plan to take my little lion loving children to see Disney's new movie "African Cats." Lily is extremely excited about this. I know I really don't need to do much more to encourage her crazy obsession with lions, but I just can't help myself. She finds them fascinating....so I oblige.

All of that above is great, and I am looking quite forward to it. But in the midst of it all, I want to make sure that my family stays in a spirit of thanksgiving and prayer. I cannot just go about tomorrow as if it is any other day off for Patrick. It's not. In fact, tomorrow is everything.

"He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." 2 Corinthians 5:21

I'm posting a short little video from youtube. It's a part of a sermon from David Platt. I hope you can find time to watch it. He does an amazing job of truly explaining the sacrifice Christ made.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Good Friday! It is good indeed.
