Thinking About The Unpleasant Truths of Good Friday

It is difficult to think about the details of Jesus’ torture and execution.  When I do take the time to consider these realities I’m usually inclined to think, “It’s not fair!  He was innocent!!!”

This is true and, of course, it is part of the point of the matter.

Even though it can be unpleasant I will ponder this aspect of Jesus’ life today.  It is an important part of the whole story.  Fortunately, however, even as I think about these painful truths, I do so with the knowledge that Sunday is coming.
