It doesn’t feel so good…
Today, Paul Marc Goulet wrote the message of "A Miracle Every Day". I pray his message and audio will bless you today.

Have you ever had a bad experience turn out for good?
Why do people call the betrayal, torture and crucifixion of Jesus “Good Friday”? It sounds like a bad description of a horrific day. That is, unless you have the ability to see the good that came out of it.
friend, have you ever experienced pain, loss, rejection and disappointment, only to find out it actually turned out for the good?
Do you remember that horrible relational breakup, only to find your soulmate after the pain? Or what do you think (if you’re a woman) of the discomfort and pain of carrying a child for nine months and then giving birth?
My dad used to say: “No pain, no gain, Paul.” I grew up with a drill sergeant for a dad, but I am grateful for it because he trained me to push through pain in order to achieve victory.
So friend, we call it Good Friday because God is so good. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16, NIV) Jesus is so good because He pressed through the pain for our gain. He did it all for you, your family and friends. He did it for the kid without a dad and the victim of abuse. It’s a good day because all of our mistakes are forgiven; Jesus paid the penalty for all of our stuff.
friend, let’s celebrate Good Friday because you and I can be forgiven, healed and born again. All of us have a destiny as friends of God.
Don’t ever forget: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16, NIV)
It’s a good day because He forgave you for every failure.
It’s a good day because it creates better people and better days.
You’re a miracle.
