📖 Verse of the Day

Reflection:

On this Good Friday, as we stand at the foot of the cross, Isaiah 53:5 calls us to witness the depths of God's love and the life-altering power of Christ's sacrifice. This prophetic verse paints a heartbreaking yet glorious picture of the suffering Savior, offering redemption for a broken world.

In the face of our sin and the darkness that surrounds us, this passage bursts with hope. The image of a pierced and crushed Messiah bearing our deserved punishment reveals a love that knows no limits, a love that bridges the chasm between God and humanity.

The cross, once a symbol of defeat, transforms into a beacon of victory. His wounds become our healing; His stripes erase our shame. Our salvation, purchased at such a terrible cost – the precious blood of Christ – washes us clean.

Today, as we reflect on this boundless gift, may gratitude flood our souls for the love that laid down its life. May our own wounds find solace at the foot of the cross. And may this Good Friday ignite within us a burning passion to walk in His footsteps, sharing the transformative hope and healing found in Jesus with a world in desperate need of His light.
