the Really Bad, Really Good Friday

April 22, 2011 By: amyswanderingcomment

This was my Facebook status earlier today:

Kids are cleaning . . . Redemption Songs is blaring . . . the Son is shining . . . it’s a               beautiful Holy day!

Doesn’t it sound like we had little bluebirds helping us fold the towels?

Here is a glimpse of our reality earlier today:

someone was hungry . . . someone was tired . . . the two yr old was wired . . . kids bickered . . .    I threatened to turn the music off if it didn’t quieten down . . .

Yet my Facebook status still remained true.

Our day was good or bad depending on where you focused.

We chose to focus on the Holy and had a lovely day in spite of ourselves.

The same can be said of those sacred events that took place so long ago:

the betrayal . . . the abandonment . . . the pain . . . the suffering . . . the burden of our sin . . .

There was nothing good on that day.

And yet there was everything Good on that day.

I am eternally grateful that there was a Really Bad, Really Good Friday!
