But God

You know those words or sentences or things like that in the Bible that we hear so many times that when we read them it's just like, oh yeah, whatever. Have you ever really  thought about what it means to be dead in your trespasses and sins? And you he made alive, when you were dead through the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience. Among these we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of body and mind, and so we were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. Ephesians 2:1-3 And you, who were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, Colossians 2:13 Trespass: Wrongful entry upon the lands of another. To commit a transgression or offense; transgress; offend; sin. Arrogantly step across the line.

The price is high

"The price is certainly high for people who don't know Christ and live in a world where Christians shrink back from self-denying faith and settle into self-indulging faith. While Christians choose to spend their lives fulfilling the American dream instead of giving their lives to proclaiming the kingdom of God, literally billions in need of the Gospel remain in the dark" -David Platt

Won't Let Me Go

O Love That Will Not Let me Go ~ Incredible Grace Music 1. O Love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee; I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be. 2. O Light that followest all my way, I yield my flickering torch to thee; My heart restores it's borrowed ray, That in thy sunshine's blaze its day May brighter, fairer be. 3. O Joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to thee; I trace the rainbow through the rain, And feel the promise is not vain, That morn shall tearless be. 4. O Cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from thee; I lay in dust life's glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red Life that shall endless be.
