There comes a point in each one of our lives when life itself forces us to look at what we truly are. It is at those times when we either ignore the tugging, run faster away, blame others, rage out, or surrender and ask for help. It is a moment of truth within ones own self. The moment when personal sins and or the injustice of others become so great a burden, one just can’t ignore, and or carry it any more. At least not alone.
Now is the time to reach out to others with an outstretched hand to help those who are hurting and show them the way of the Lord. Grace and mercy is given to all who repent and desire to be cleansed of all the past that haunts them. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God – who can truly say that they indeed are all the things that God intended for them to be? It is at this crossroads, that each must decide which road to take. Big and wide is the gate that leads to destruction and narrow is the gate that leads to life. Come to the Lord, for he already paid the price for you to be with him and have life everlasting.
Please listen to this wondrous song, heed its’ calling and rejoice in God’s wondrous plan for all of us.
“Oh God, I must tell you I’m sorry, won’t you hear me in my time of need? I no longer want this burden…won’t you listen to my plea? Oh God, I long to be free. And I know what I must do. Look at me, I’m down on my knees. And I surrender, all to you.
“I was a thorn that brought him shame, that drew his blood and caused him pain. I was the nail that cut like a knife, that scarred his hands and took his life. And after all was said and done, he brought me in, he called me son. Because risen from death was victory, that thorny crown became a crown of glory. Oh God, how much you have loved me to have given all of you for me………
