[Dave's comment on the Lord's Supper ](http://covenanters.wordpress.com/2007/04/01/potpourii/) echoed my own during the [Maundy Thursday](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maundy_Thursday) service at our church. And still does, as I contemplate it. Our pastor always does a fine job in all his services, but he does it up even better on reflexive days such as Maundy Thursday. Last night, he made us face the fact on why Jesus had to die. He died for me, for my sins, because there was no other way I could be forgiven.

Why is this Friday so Good? For the same reason it’s so Bad. Because it’s my sins that put Christ on the cross. From the one of the songs we sang during the service:

> Who was the guilty?
> Who brought this upon you?
> It is my treason, Lord,
> That has undone you.
> ‘Twas I, Lord Jesus, I it was denied you;
> I crucified you.
>
> Dear Jesus,
> Since I cannot pay you,
> I do adore you and will every pray you,
> Think on you pity and love unswerving,
> Not my deserving
