It's Easter Holiday once again and we are celebrating the one of the major cardinals of the Christian faith - The Crucifixion and Resurrection  of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Despite the fact that a few persons believe that the exact dates are not followed, we are just fine bringing the events to remembrance around this time of the year. The main purpose of this article however, is to highlight the reasons why the day Jesus was crucified is called GOOD FRIDAY . Let me quickly give you a little background into the reason Jesus came to die and why His death was ' good ' for all mankind. WHO IS JESUS? Jesus is the Son of the living God sent to this world to reconcile man to his Creator.

Hey Dearies,  Welcome to my first blog post! Let me first introduce myself to those who may not know me. I'm Ariyo Oluseyi, I live in Port Harcourt city Nigeria. I am a Civil Engineer turned teacher and hey, I love my job (smiles). I'm currently trying my hands on blogging just to put my writing skills to use after a really longgg time. Let me tell you a few more things about me, I'm a DIY freak. I basically love to do things by myself as much as possible and as time would permit also. I'm interested in topics ranging from Faith to Fashion, Photography, Natural hair, DIYs and Godly Relationships. I am yet to decide how to streamline my content but I guess it would be as wide as it can be. As I start this new journey, I hope to make new friends, learn new things and grow in faith too. I'll be glad to hear from you feedback, suggestions, tips and even articles. Thanks for stopping by! Lots of love, Oluseyi.
