Today is Good Friday, the day of our Lord’s death on the cross in atonement for our sins. I’ve read a lot of different perspectives on what this means to us as a Christian people but this simple statement speaks to my heart.

 

Rupert of Deutz (1075-1129), a Benedictine abbot and theologian, wrote:

 

"The cross of Christ is the door to heaven, the key to paradise, the downfall of the devil, the uplifting of mankind, the consolation of our imprisonment, the prize for our freedom."

 

Happy Easter, frens.

 

Continuing prayers for all military and all active operators who are working for US at this time and in the days ahead. May they have perfect safety and success, and emerge from their tasks with their bodies and minds healthy and whole. May they know they are respected, appreciated, and loved. In Jesus' holy name, Amen.
