It's crazy, no matter how many times we mess up, God forgives us. He is so full of mercy and forgiveness, but He still shows us that we do not need to do those things we do anymore. God sent His son Jesus to die for our sins, and we've know this all our life, our first memory verse is John 3:16, and we've had it in our minds since. But do we really think about the sacrifice Jesus made for us? You see those pictures of Jesus hanging on a cross with a crown of thorns and and hardly no blood on Him, thats not how it was. The Bible says we probably couldn't of even recognized Him. He was so heavily beaten and whipped and tortured before He came to hang on the cross. Could you even imagine the pain? If we couldn't even recognize He was even a man hanging on the cross, think about how brutely beaten He was. He went through all of this for us, low down sinners who didn't even deserve any sacrifice like that. But the beauty of that sacrifice is Jesus rose again on the third day and from there on out He was our advocate with God. When we ask forgiveness of our sins, they are put under that blood that Jesus bled for us. And we are clean again, Amen. He is Awesome! Well i've just been going though some tough lessons and just thought i would share a little of my mind with ya. When you get tempted by something or someone, think about the cross, think about what Jesus did for you, think about which decision would glorify Him!

In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt of life, no fear of death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
