Blown Away!!!

Here I am sitting here this morning, drinking my Java and the thought just came into my mind like a tornado. I was thinking wow did Christ really die for me? It is so hard to believe, well in one sense I know for sure he did and cleansed my black heart and soul in His blood to be pure in His image. On the other hand it blows my mind to think that He did that, so selfless, so loving, so holy, so kind, so forgiving, so sweet I could go on and on and and fill up this whole blog.
Danny preached this Sunday and when he was speaking he was teaching from Acts 17:1-34 when Paul was in Athens and there was an idol for an "unkown god" then he touched on

Psalm 115:3-18

But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases.
Their idols are silver and gold, The work of man's hands.
They have mouths, but they cannot speak; They have eyes, but they cannot see;
They have ears, but they cannot hear; They have noses, but they cannot smell;
They have hands, but they cannot feel; They have feet, but they cannot walk; They cannot make a sound with their throat.
Those who make them will become like them, Everyone who trusts in them.
O Israel, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.
O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.
You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.
The LORD has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.
He will bless those who fear the LORD, The small together with the great.
May the LORD give you increase, You and your children.
May you be blessed of the LORD, Maker of heaven and earth.
The heavens are the heavens of the LORD, But the earth He has given to the sons of men.
The dead do not praise the LORD, Nor do any who go down into silence;
But as for us, we will bless the LORD From this time forth and forever. Praise the LORD!


It is just amazing when you think about how precious our God is. Thank you Lord for hanging on a cross for me.
