Good Friday
Good Friday is all about Jesus’ Total Offering of Love to Save us.
The CCC (614-615) explains that all sin is a turning away from God, away from His will in disobedience, away from His love by our refusing to love Him. Jesus opened the floodgates of Divine Mercy when he substituted his love and obedience for all of our refusal to love and obey God.
By his life and death Jesus became a total offering of love and obedience to God in reparation for our sin.
Now with Jesus living in us our ordinary everyday life can become true spiritual worship, a total offering in love and obedience.
1. Strive to do the will of God in all things. Fulfill the responsibilities of your state in life because it is the will of God for you.
2. Then accept everything you did not choose, do not like and cannot change for the love of Jesus.
3. Most of all, offer to God constant thanksgiving by not living in the past or the future, but by living in the present moment, becoming aware of good in that moment, and thanking Him.
