COT:

May 31st F3 Dads & Kids workout – It’s a beatdown for the kids. Which sounds bad, but it’ll be really good.

Prayers for – Dufresne, Orwell’s Dad who is ready to be with the Lord, Cornholio’s new baby girl, Denali’s M about to deliver, and all of us men who do indeed need prayer!

It’s Good Friday. Today we remember that Jesus hung on a tree. It sounds like an oxymoron to call this day Good Friday when it is the day he hung on the tree. But it is a very good thing.

In the Jewish law, it says, “Cursed is anyone who hangs on a tree.” Deuteronomy 21:23 / Galatians 3:13 Jesus hung on the tree to be cursed for us, so that we wouldn’t have to pay the penalty for  the wrong we have done in thought, word or deed. He was hung on the tree at about noon, and he expired around 3pm. His life for ours.

Remember this today, brothers. In it, we see the profound extent of God’s love for every one of us. It is indeed Good Friday.

Ball of Man, prayer and we were out.
