Good Friday .... What is wrong with the sermons at churches on this day?

    Hello everyone. I hope you are blessed today as you read and go about your day in the presence of the Lord. Let's start out with a prayer that I read and found it to be so inspiring to me....

          Lord Jesus, the presence of your mother at the cross engages my heart. You are no longer only the Savior dying for the sins of the world. You are also a fully human man, a son with a mother.

O Lord, how can I begin to thank you for what you suffered? My words fall short. My thoughts seem superficial and vague. Nevertheless, I offer my sincere gratitude for your suffering. Thank you for bearing my sin on the cross. I give you my praise, my love, my heart . . . all that I am, because you have given me all that you are.
All praise be to you, Lord Jesus, fully God and fully human, Savior of the world . . . my Savior!
                                                                                             Amen.


   I had went to a church service on Good friday. I was not very please with what I was hearing. At all.
I do not know about you , but it has taking me almost my whole life to come to terms that I owe my whole life to my living God and the Saviour Jesus Christ that hung on that cross for me. Through him I am allow to still reach the kingdom . With all that said , the passion that a church should have for this special day that we chose to remember and embrace as the day that Jesus died on that cross, should be full of life and hapiness and rejoicing. Something like thanksgiving for life and a second chance of life...This was the day that our jesus died for the sins of the world .It makes sense that the first word of Jesus from the cross is a word of forgiveness. That’s the point of the cross, after all. Jesus is dying so that we might be forgiven for our sins, so that we might be reconciled to God for eternity.
  Now when you go to a church you think that this celebration is going to bring such joy. As I anticipated such a great service for the evening, I couldn't wait to get there. I got dress and headed my way to a church. The church that I initially wanted to go was unfortunately close, so I went to another. I think I sat for about half an hour out of a three hour service. That's how unhappy I was . It was like it was a dead church. No one was uplifting no one was prepared to do the last seven words of christ and the services was just chaotic...All I can do is pray. Ask God to forgive us for how we are remembering why christ die. To think that this is what we are teaching our children..
Everyday our world gets worst. Just pray as much as much you can, our future need it.....
