#Day 85: 25 March 2016

GOOD FRIDAY - ULTIMATE SACRIFICE

Hebrews 12:1-3 - God's disciples proves His love.

"Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won’t become weary and give up"

Mark 15:16-20 - The soldiers mock Jesus

• Jesus endured all the mockery, rudeness, hostility and insults from the soldiers and from everyone else.
• He is not only suffered physically but also mentally.
• The same people that praised Him, mocked Him and attacked Him.
• At that moment we would expect the dearest people to help us, but no one come to help Him, even His own disciples left Him.
• Imagine how He felt at that time (the same feeling that we sometime felt, the feeling to stop and walk away from our calling - our work, our service)
• Jesus focus on His calling. We need to do the same, focus on our calling, our pure intention, to love Jesus and to love others.
• Just like Jesus, who walked through: The Death, The Resurrection and The Ascension, we also need to walk through the same process.
• Our ego need to die, then resurrect by the grace of God (In Him and Through Him), only then we can rose and conquer our challenges.

2 Corinthians 4:10 - Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies:

• A lot of time we do not share the death but seems we just unconscious. Because our oldself seems to always come back!

In this Good Friday, let us reflect on the life of Jesus. On His respect to His calling and serving.

Our problem is waaayyyyyy easier than His! My problem in office is waaayyyyy simpler than His!

(Above is the summary of Good Friday sermont by Pastor Eddy). It answers my current situation of challenges at work life as well as personal life. Thank you Jesus.

Another day full of blessing
