While I was listening to this song, this lyrics moved my heart.
What an amazing, priceless, indescribable gift of God our precious Jesus is.
While you read this lyrics, just take some time to think of the meaning of Jesus' life for you and just surrender in worship.
"To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of it's suffering I do drink
Of it's work I do sing
For on it my Savior both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is just
At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I’m sweetly broken, wholly surrendered
What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified
You’ve called me out of death
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciled
In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness"

Life is too short for us to be worrying about tomorrow.
Jesus said: "Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" (Matthew 6:25,26)
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." (Matt.6:34)
Have you thought that? ... tomorrow will worry about itself. We just play our part, pray,
and don't worry!!
"Fear the Lord, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing. The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing." (Psalm 34:9,10)
"...I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread." (Psalm 37:25)
Better than that, God gives us not just provision to barely make it in life, but he gives us life in abundance!!!
"They feast in the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light." (Psalm 36:8,9)
Hallelujah!! God is good!!
So, if you are worried, now you know what to do: relax, go have a look at the birds!!
The church I see is built of people that are committed and full of faith to "GO" and transform lives. People that are committed to God and to each other, guided and empowered by the Holy Spirit in every step they take. A church that let go of any proud or selfishness, putting the needs of others above their own. People moved by the deep and transforming love of God, who gave His one and beloved Son for us. A church that is transformed by this love and reflects it giving itself for others.
A bride, radiant, passionate and rejoicing in the love for her bridegroom, Jesus, with the first love for Him that never fades, always remembering her focus and purpose in here, and doing everything motivated and moved by His love and life. A church that values His presence more that anything else, and this makes her be separated for Him alone.
