This Friday is a very special Friday as we remembered our true friend whom had lay down his life for our salvation. A special meaning to the word "Good" as Christian we fully entrust God's love for us as he had his only Son going through the peak of agony of humiliation, suffering and rejection as he is tried in front of the Pharisees and Roman 2000 years ago today. Good means salvation, a hope, act of love, reconciliation and the mission of Christ bridging us back to our Father in Heaven is accomplished.
Christians all over the world today shall be mourning on the loss though temporary as Jesus shall return in glory on Easter Sunday, the highlight of Christianity. The love of Jesus for us is so enormous that he had suffered more than 5,000 blows on his body not in his own accord but for each and everyone of us. We could imagine as his utmost bodily pains and humiliation as shown in Mel Gibson's Passion of Christ and also the inner sufferings by his own mother wiping each and every drop of blood in the punishment chamber. The crown that the Roman put on Jesus is the symbol of Christ the Suffering as we shall remember, suffering for us leading us to salvation.
As Christian, all of us are carrying our crosses and as we journey down on our road to salvation, we shall experience, tempted and humiliated like Jesus whose sufferings are much more that us as we are suffering because of our own actions and he is suffering for us. Therefore, at any moment of the suffering, we could rely on Jesus' compassion and love for us and His spirit shall rest with us to walk together to Glory @ His Glorious Ressurection on Easter...a victory against death, suffering, etc...
Have a good reflection and reconciliation and Happy Easter 2007.
