I now know a little more deeply why we call it 'Good' Friday - it is good because it reveals the heart of a Good God of boundless merciful love who Himself knows our pain and who, in His Son, transforms it all by redemptive love.

In my years I have come across several cases where one man has cared for a disabled wife, or visa-versa, or a parent for a child, for years, and you ask yourself how can they do it? And then you know that it is only with the power God gives can they do it. It is God's grace at work.
