Speechless

The greatness of my God has left my completely speechless today! He is so GREAT and so MIGHTY....yet He makes a way for us to come to Him! He is perfect in His faithfulness! He loves us! He delights in us! I'm in awe!
Oh Lord God Almighty, I come before You in awe and complete humility. You are YAHWEH, my LORD and my God! My Savior, my Redeemer, I praise You, simply for who You are! All the glory, honor, and praise are Yours!!!

At The Foot of the Cross

When I think of Your cross
And the pain I've put you through
I cover my face in shame
How could a God so holy suffer for me?

At the foot of the cross
I fall to my knees
As Your blood washes over me
You lift my head

It's only by your blood
I can lift my face to You
Because of what You've done on the cross
I can enter Your presence
Knowing I'm forgiven and loved

As You hung on the cross
Took my punishment, my pain
You saw my face in the crowd
Yet still You loved me

At the foot of the cross
I fall to my knees
As Your blood washes over me
You lifted my head

It's only by Your blood
I can lift my face to You
Because of what You've done on the cross
I can enter Your presence
Knowing I'm forgiven and loved

The earth shakes and trembles before You
All of creation praises You

You are so great and mighty
Yet You made a way for me
To come to You

At the foot of the cross
I fall to my knees
As Your blood washes over me
You lift my head

It's only by Your blood
I can lift my face to You
Because of what You've done on the cross
I can enter Your presence
Knowing I'm forgiven and loved

How to Have Hope

Before the Lord changed my life and became my Savior, I had no peace, no hope, and no purpose. I grew up in a Christian home, but it wasn't until I was 14 years old that I understood that I was a sinner destined for a place called Hell. I believed that Jesus died on a cross for ME and MY sins and that without Jesus Christ, I could never get into Heaven. So that night at a revival service at my church, I admitted to God I was a sinner and repented of those sins, then I asked Him to come into my life and be my LORD, my SAVIOR, my Boss. At that very moment He did, and I've never been the same since. I know that my life and I are NOT perfect, but I also know I couldn't imagine going through this life without my Savior and the peace, hope, purpose, and joy He has given me. Not to mention, an eternity with Him!

If you could, would you want what God has given me? Would you want absolute forgiveness, peace, hope, joy, and purpose? If you do, you CAN! God loves you so much that he sent His Son to die for YOU and YOUR sins! He wants you to spent eternity in heaven Him with and so do I. You must understand that you are a sinner. (when you do things you know your not supposed to do, but also when you don't do things you know you should!)(Romans 3:23) Understand that the price for your sins is death and Hell, that's the bad news! The good news is that the gift of God is eternal life through His Son Jesus Christ! (Romans 6:23) Then You have to confess your sins and ask God for forgiveness. Then believe that Jesus Christ came into this world,lived a perfect sinless life, died on a painful cross for you and your sin, and then was raised again on the third day and that He is ALIVE today. (Romans 5:8 and 10:9)
Ask Him to come into your heart and save you, surrender everything to Him! You will NEVER be sorry you did!
