Good Friday - Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

It is important to note that Jesus’ prayer, “Father, forgive them,” does not mean that everyone was forgiven, without repentance and faith. It does mean that Jesus was willing to forgive them—forgiveness was, in fact, the reason He was on the cross. The words “Father, forgive them” show the merciful heart of God. Even in His agony, Jesus’ concern was for the forgiveness of those who counted themselves among His enemies. He asked the Father to forgive the thieves on the cross who made rude and mocking remark at Him. He asked the Father to forgive the Roman soldiers who had mocked Him, spit on Him, beat Him, yanked out His beard, whipped Him, put a crown of thorns on His head, and nailed Him to the cross. Jesus asked forgiveness for the angry mob that had mocked Him and called for His crucifixion. Who do you need to forgive?

Due to the corona virus pandemic, many couples have had to postpone their weddings. Some, however, are finding more creative ways around the problem like having a few people witness their nuptials. They are also re-scheduling their honeymoon for later this year or even next year. If your honeymoon was cancelled, here are some fun ways you can still experience a getaway: Have fun together making your home into a honeymoon destination. You can put up a sign that says, “Welcome to your honeymoon,” or even set up your own snacks and mini bar. Put a couple of pieces of chocolate on your pillows, and take some time to learn how to fold a towel like a swan. The point is, choose to love, laugh and have fun creating an at home honeymoon destination together. Enjoy and let me know if I can help you plan. #DestiPastor #IDoCrew

Lailah Sa Mone Kenya I am overwhelmed with joy to wake up with these pictures in my inbox. Over the summer I sent a couple of my granddaughters old dolls and a couple of our books to an orphanage in Kenya. Our children are so blessed and Lailah and I wanted to be a blessing to these young ladies. My plan is to continue to be a blessing to these princesses. If you would like to join me in this effort comment below or send me a message. Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” Luke 6:37-38
