hlmillerblogSunday’s On The Way
As a child, I wondered why today was labeled “Good Friday.” There was nothing good about the horrific suffering and death of Jesus. As a teen, I heard a song by Carman called “Sunday’s On The Way,” and it gave me hope. My tears of grief turned to expectation. Now as an adult, I understand that the “good” part of today is that Jesus willingly laid down His life for mine. His precious blood and broken body set me free from sin and shame! God used the devil’s plan to stop Jesus as a launching pad for the greatest event in history! JESUS IS ALIVE!!!
Music has always been able to put words and a melody to my emotions, helping me to express them when I didn’t know how. Here is a playlist I made years ago of songs that remind me both of the pain of Good Friday and the JOY of Easter Sunday. I hope these songs will encourage you today.
