It's not hard to see ourselves in this Good Friday narrative. We are just like the people two thousand years ago. Things haven't really changed. We are still focused on ourselves. Our own wants, our own needs, our own desires. Meanwhile, on the cross, Jesus is focused on the needs of others and the will of his Father in heaven. Through his perfect sacrifice, the work of our salvation is finished. Our debt is paid. Through Jesus, God looks at us, and he calls us good.
