"God's Loving Sacrifice For Man!"
Easter is God's gift to mortal man,
His death on Calvary was His Father's plan.
What awesome love He had for us that day,
Was simply more than any words I can say!
And so on that horrific day He died,
With His mother weeping bitterly by His side,
Not really knowing what did lie ahead,
Only seeing that their beloved Lord was now dead!
Surely they knew He would arise again,
For all of us and them He did call His friend,
To live forever in God's Paradise above,
With all His saints He unconditionally does love!
He was risen for a purpose with healing in His wings;
For that my heart with rapture now gloriously sings
Of a Christ who cared that much for me.
Oh I'm just not worthy, not worthy you see!
For I know that the Lord is on my side.
Even if it had been just me He would have died,
So that I can live with Him in His Sweet Forever;
There to praise Jesus will be my only endeavor!

"But now a righteousness from God, apart from
law, has been made known, to which the Law
and the Prophets testify. This righteousness
from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to
all who believe. There is no difference, for all
have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
and are justified freely by his grace through the
redemption that came by Christ Jesus."
~Romans 3:21-24~ "This is how God showed his love among us:
He sent his one and only Son into the world that
we might live through him. This is love: not that we
loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends,
since God so loved us, we also ought to love one
~1 John 4:9-11~ "I pray that out of his glorious riches he may
strengthen you with power through his Spirit in
your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your
hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being
rooted and established in love, may have power,
together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and
long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to
know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you
may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do
immeasurably more
than all we ask or imagine, according to his power
that is at work within us, to him be glory in the
church and in Christ Jesus throughout all
generations, for ever and ever! Amen.another."
~Ephesians 3:16-21~
When Jesus died on Calvary's cross,
He took our sin and shame;
He gave to us His righteousness,
His glory, and His name. —Sper
*Nothing speaks more clearly of God's love
than the cross.*
t was love that heard my pleadings
When I cried out in my sin;
It was love that gave me comfort;
It was love that took me in. —Bonney
