Sorry I haven't updated in a few days. But I think I've hit somewhat of a writer's block. I keep trying to think of something to blog about, but nothing has come up. After church this morning I attempted to wrtie something about today's sermon and the impact it had on me, but I realized I probably had enough to write a book! So, no blog of importance today. Maybe I'll think of something good tomorrow...
I just watched the movie Fireproof and it was absolutely amazing! The acting could have been a little better, but all in all, it was an AWESOME movie. Over the past couple of years I've seen almost every movie that has came to theaters, but I can't remember the last time I saw a movie that was so uplifting and encouraging! Everyone must see this one...
I just heard this song by Chris Tomlin called Jesus Messiah. I'm not sure if it's new or not, but it's new to me because I've never heard it. The words are so powerful. I have 'em listed below incase you haven't heard it yet. The first line of this song is my favorite. "He became sin, who knew no sin." Even though Christ was tempted by the devil (for 40 days in the desert, to be exact), He NEVER sinned. Yet He was willing to DIE for the sin of you and I! I know this is a very basic concept, something I've been taught since birth. But I don't think I will ever be able to fully grasp Christ's love for us; none of us can. I guess that's why I love this song so much. It's simple!--when the idea of Christ's love for us can many times seem very overwhelming! Jesus Messiah by Chris Tomlin He became sin, who knew no sin That we may become His righteouness He humbled himself and carried the cross Love so amazing, Love so amzing Jesus Messiah Name above all names Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel Who resuced for sinners, the ransom from heaven Jesus Messiah, Lord of all His body the bread, His blood the wine broken and poured out all for love the whole earth trembled and the veil was torn All our hope is in you, all our hope is in you All the glory to you, God The light of the world
Since the semester has started, I believe this is the first weekend I've had where I haven't had to do school work. And to be honest, I don't know what to do with myself! I worked this morning but now I'm just sitting at home thinking "um, what do I do now?" Thank goodness I have a family get-together tonight or I'd lose my mind! haha, maybe I'm exaggerating a little...but it does feel nice not having to bother with all my textbooks. (all 14 of them)
