The sky darkens. The earth trembles. And from the cross, Love speaks its final word: “It is finished.”
Good Friday takes us to the foot of the cross—not to despair, but to witness the most radical act of love the world has ever known. Here, Jesus lets go of everything—His body broken, His spirit poured out, His very breath surrendered. He carries the weight of our pain, sin, and silence and bears it not with resentment, but with mercy.

The cross is not defeat—it is the doorway. In this letting go, Jesus teaches us that true victory lies not in escaping suffering, but in embracing it for the sake of love. We are invited today to gaze upon the crucified Christ and recognize: He chose this path out of love for us.
