Father Forgive Them

Luke 23:32-34   
32 There were also two others, criminals, led with Him to be put to death. 33 And when they had come to the place called Calvary, there they crucified Him, and the criminals, one on the right hand and the other on the left. 34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” And they divided His garments and cast lots.

They gambled for Jesus' clothes as Psalm 22:18 said would happen, after leading Him to the place of death (the skull).  Even after nailing Him to the cross Jesus asked forgiveness for them, interceding with mercy and grace.  So He offers that grace to us now.
