A Sin Offering

When will I realize that what Christ did for me was more than just defeating death. Why is it so hard to comprehend that He sacrificed Himself so that I would not have to bare my own cross.  He became a sin offering, a sacrificial lamb who by His blood we are free.  All of us even those who choose not to believe were covered by His sacrifice. Now they must choose what He has to offer, but it is there for them. God’s love is unconditional and His grace is unexplainable.  I want to take this time in my life and understand what He sacrificed and see myself upon that cross and realize I will NEVER suffer that death because His blood was shed for me and you. AMEN AND AMEN… SELAH

Jesus In Everyone

Where does your day begin?
In a bed or on a bench
We are all crippled by sin
And carry a worldly stench

We walk by our siblings day after day
Our second looks are rarely in admiration
We walk alone as if we are a castaway
Just passing by all of his beautiful creations

Jesus is inside of everyone
Young, Old, Rich, and Poor
He can Never be outdone
He resides at our hearts core

Please! Look past how I am dressed
Or even that I am completely different than you
Jesus suffered for me so I am blessed
I promise I am someone you wish you knew

Jesus looked into a person’s soul
This gift is in all who follow Christ
This, My Friends, should be our ultimate goal
For Jesus paid with his life the ultimate price

Jesus in Everyone
What does this mean?
Well that God’s almighty and loving son
Died so we could all be made clean

Love all those who come in your path
Pray even for the ones who curse you
People who do not fear will feel his wrath
Forgive them for they do not have a clue

Open your eyes to all who are in need
Know in your heart God’s will be done
Even a whisper of his name and you plant a seed
Remember, Jesus in Everyone!

Lotto!

Can I tell you that I have had a lotto plan in place for a few years now.  One of the favorite things for me a few of my friends to do is talk about what we would do with all that wealth.  It wasn’t to long after that I realized we have all won the Lottery.. The Spiritual one that is.  God went ahead and decided to pick the numbers for us which was one.  The Christ Jesus was our Lotto Ticket.  His sacrifice provided us with the Ultimate wealth.  Eternal Life.  We have a choice to enjoy this life to the full. It doesn’t mean we wont be disappointed, hurt, let down, or stabbed in the back, but you know we will also be loved, trusted, and cared for.  There is always a balance in life when you have Jesus.  That’s where our winning number comes in.  When the Evil one tries to unload burden upon burden on you, Jesus says NO!  He carries us and walks next to us.  He provided us with access to all the angels and to the Holy Spirit.  The awesome thing about the wealth that we have won in Christ, it is forever abundant and it never ends.  The more you want the more and more He will provide.  I am glad God took a chance on us and gave us free will.  It is so much more beautiful to choose Christ because you want to and not because you have too!  Thank you for this life and for choosing to take the risk and have faith that we would choose you, Lord… Selah!
