Luke 23, 365 DAYS OF LOVE #16: I LOVE MOM

Passage: The Crucifixion, Jesus' Death, Jesus' Burial


Notes: (v.1-56) Jesus' crucifixion took place: the arrested Jesus only on the basis of his teaching, though he committed no crime. But even after all their insults, their beatings, and their mockery, Jesus cried out to God for forgiveness for the men, "for they do not know what they are doing."(Wow) Even as this happened, they divided up his clothes and sneered at him, challenging him to prove his identity by saving himself. One of the criminals who was next to him hurled insults at Jesus, but the other one rebuked the criminal, defending Jesus' righteousness. Jesus said to him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
Jesus breathed his last after he cried out to God, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." A man named Joseph, who did not consent to the Council's actions, came to Pilate asking for Jesus' body. He wrapped it in linen and placed it in an unused tomb. The women who were with Jesus went and prepared spices and perfumes.
Jesus is the ultimate lover. 

ACT OF LOVE: Since today was Mother's Day, I tried to make my mother feel truly LOVED. I woke up extra early this morning to make her breakfast--pancakes, coffee, and fruit. I even designed a fancy schmancy menu, even though she didn't really have a choice of what to eat. hahaa..Now, it was my first time using a stove (especially by myself), AND my first time making pancakes, so I was sort of nervous. My first one didn't go too well...


But they got better with practice! 
 I'd say it was a pretty successful first time-- no egg shells, no one poisoned, nothing (completely) burned :)
I also tried to do all the chores for her today (take care of Bambi's poo, make her and my bed, wash the dishes, etc). 
I never realized how FUN it was making pancakes! Let me make you breakfast sometime!!
