The Daily Dash: April 14, 2017 {Good Friday}
IN THE WORLD:
* Good Friday leading into Easter Sunday
* Overnight fire on Bellagio roof shuts down Las Vegas strip
* Coachella opens
* Twitter is all the rage with #TheLastJedi & #SWCO (who knew there was such a thing & why didn’t I know about it before?); the celebration concluded with a moving tribute to Carrie Fisher
IN THE WORD:
This Week’s Verse: Colossians 3:17
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him
Our Lord’s cross is the gateway into His life ~ Oswald Chambers
IN MY LIFE
It’s Good Friday! I pray that today is a time of fun and family if you have the day off, but also reflection. Whatever belief system you ascribe to, these milestones are important for us to take a step back from our normal routines and acknowledge who has come before us and what has been done on our behalf. Today is the day I as a Christian observe, not as much for what was done today, but the anxious anticipation it represents for Christ rising from the grave three days later on what we celebrate as Easter Sunday.
I’m also hoping we will have running water in our kitchen today so we can celebrate Easter with food, family and friends on Sunday. I got excited just when I smelled the “burning off” of the new oven because it signified that cooking and baking would soon begin again in our home!
I pray each of you has a beautiful weekend making new memories and reflecting on the gifts we’ve been given and how we can share those with others.
Nail Polish of the Week:
Not sure what possessed me, but I went with a soft gray VAPOUR on most of my nails, but bedazzled my ring fingers with a glittery gold RETURN TICKET. Check out all the Butter LONDON colors here: https://bit.ly/ButLon
