  • Summary

  • My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? These words echo through Good Friday. They're raw, violent, terrible.

    They're the silence which follows a question everyone was too afraid to ask. The heartbreak of a child crying in fear and pain. The wailing of a bereaved parent.

    Fr Sam Rossiter-Peters explains the events that occurred in the lead up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and that those who followed him until this day and through all days would be able to know the fullness of joy of being in the presence of the Father, led by Jesus the Son, empowered by the Spirit. In the hope that overcame his fear, our fear was saved. His fear gave way to the surety of the life of the Trinity, the goodness of the Father, the power of the Spirit.

    In him our fear gives way to him. He who has gone before us has proven himself our good shepherd. And now, even when our path leads through the valley of the shadow of death, we will fear no evil, because his rod and his staff will guide us where he has already gone.

    We are sure that goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our life, and we will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Thanks be to Jesus that he was afraid for us.
