There is something about your relationship with the lord, you are wholesome focused and upright in him, God gave his only begotten son to save our lives from sin and shame. As we are in the season of lent we are preparing for the crucifixion a period of 40 days during which Christians remember the events leading up to and including the death of Jesus Christ, whose life and teachings are the foundation of Christianity.
When they heaped abuse on Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats, but entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree so that he might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his stripes you are healed For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, The emblem of suffering and shame; And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best For a world of lost sinners was slain. So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, Till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, And exchange it someday for a crown
Salt and Light
“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5-13-16
Remember that Jesus is our hope all we have to do is believe.
