What It Means
Face down on the floor
Wondering how I even reached this place again
But, You have shown so endlessly, how Your love pours over me
No picture can re-create the beauty that I see
Show me what it means, to live my life a sacrifice
If only I would realize how much it took to pay the price
I know I'd always give, everything to You
I want this world to see
Your perfect majesty
Reflecting from my life this brilliant poetry
Written all over this place
The signs of all creation that You breathed
Words can't even state how much You mean to me
Show me what it means, to live my life a sacrifice
If only I would realize how much it took to pay the price
I know I'd always give, everything to You
I want to face my very crime
Of not giving all of mine
But I can feel the hope You bring to me
Romans 12:1-2 (NIV)
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Jesus Paid It All
In my opinion the greatest thing someone could ever do for me is to willingly die for me, just because they love me!
It's difficult to comprehend how anyone could love me enough to die just for me. But hold on, someone has died just for me, because they love me...Jesus! Not only that, Jesus died not just because God loves me, but because he love you too.
God did the unthinkable and sacrificed His only son just because he loves us and wants us to be free. Repay God by loving Him too - He will love you forever.
I hear the Saviour say,
"Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all."
Refrain
Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.
For nothing good have I
Whereby Thy grace to claim,
I'll wash my garments white
In the blood of Calv'ry's Lamb.
Refrain
And now complete in Him
My robe His righteousness,
Close sheltered 'neath His side,
I am divinely blest.
Refrain
Lord, now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone,
Can change the leper's spots
And melt the heart of stone.
Refrain
When from my dying bed
My ransomed soul shall rise,
"Jesus died my soul to save,"
Shall rend the vaulted skies.
Refrain
And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
I'll lay my trophies down
All down at Jesus' feet.

Let God
Are you wondering what you need to do to let God into your heart?
It's simple, ask God to lead you to the cross.
Savior I come
Quiet my soul remember
Redemptions hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Oh Lead me, lead me to the cross
You were as I
Tempted and tried
Human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin and death
Now you're risen
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Oh Lead me, lead me to the cross
To your heart
To your heart
Lead me to your heart
Lead me to your heart
Let God show you the way to the cross where you can kneel down before Him. When you do so, He will forgive you of every sin you have ever committed. He will then help and guide you through every day - He'll be there for you when you need Him most and will rejoice when you rejoice.
Let God lead you through the rest of your life.

Take It All
God sacrificed His only son for us. So how should we repay Him?
Give your life to Jesus. Live your life for Jesus. Give Him your all!
Let God be at the centre of your life. Let Him use you to tell others about His love.

Searching the world

As one we cry out
You carried the cross
You died and rose again
My God
I’ll only ever give my all

It’s eternally heard
I searched for truth
And all I found was You
My God

Jesus we’re living for Your Name
We’ll never be ashamed of You
Whoa o oh

Would You Take Jesus' Place?
I cannot comprehend how it must have felt for God, to sacrifice is only son just so my sins could be forgiven. How must Jesus have felt to know his own father was willing to let Him die on a cross? It's impossible to understand just how they must have felt.
So how can we repay them for what they did for us? We can give our heart to God, and live our lives for Him, doing all He asks of us.
Give your heart to God today!

What Easter Means To Me
So having decides to start this blog, I faced what to me was a difficult decision, what to write about in this very first post! The decision was difficult for me until it came to today, Good Friday, one of the most important days in the christian calendar. This might sound odd, but while I know many say Christmas is the most important time of year to them, I have always found Easter to be more special to me.
"Why?" I hear you ask. Well Christmas is so commericially orientated that many simply know Christmas as a time when they spend days with family, get lots of presents and eat too much and don't ever spare a thought for what Christmas is really about. I realise Easter to is becoming far more commercial these days too, but not nearly to the same extent as Christmas.

For me Easter is all about sacrifice, the sacrifice that Jesus made for each one of us on the cross when he bled and died, just so we can all be forgiven of our sins. Wow, it's impossible to truly understand the pain/agony Jesus suffered when he was crusified. Can you imagine how God felt, giving up his one and only son, just so the world could be forgiven of every sin. I struggle to truely comprehend how this must have felt, but am forever in God's debt because He did allow Christ to die on the cross.
So here we are at another Easter, another time when I feel so inadeqate and so unworthly of God's love, and also so thankful that God's does love me unconditionally and is always by my side guiding me and supporting me through each minute of every day.
What does Easter mean to you? If all you've ever know is 2 days off school or work and Easter eggs, I hope this blog has given you food for thought this Easter.
Easter is all about "The Cross" and the sacrifice God gave for you and for me.
