Hugging you on this wet Friday

  Sending out hugs on this wonderful Friday!!!!  I am thrilled that this week is over.  We have had criminal trials this week and frankly, I am tired of hearing excuses by some of our clients.  We all have them...but they will do no good one of these days when we stand before the King of Kings.  That is what I was thinking yesterday when a mother called to explain why her child was doing what he was doing and that it really was not all his fault but rather someone else's fault.  I stopped to think...do I blame my faults on others???  I am going to become more aware of this.  Excuses .... yep we all have them, but what will we miss???  I love you all!!!!  Have a wonderful day today!!!


When one of those at the table with him heard this, he said to Jesus, "Blessed is the man who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God."  Jesus replied: "A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, 'Come, for everything is now ready.'  "But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said, 'I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please excuse me.'  "Another said, 'I have just bought five yoke of oxen, and I'm on my way to try them out. Please excuse me.' "Still another said, 'I just got married, so I can't come.'  "The servant came back and reported this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and ordered his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame.'   'Sir,' the servant said, 'what you ordered has been done, but there is still room.'  "Then the master told his servant, 'Go out to the roads and country lanes and make them come in, so that my house will be full. I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will get a taste of my banquet.' "     (Luke 14:15-24)
