At the cross...

This song just means so much to me:

At the cross

Oh lord you've searched me,
You know my way, Even when I fail you,
I know you love me...

Your holy presence surrounding me,
In every season,
I know you love me...

At the cross I bow my knee,
Where your blood was she'd for me
There's no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Your glory fills the highest place,
What can separate me now...

You go before me
You shield my way,
Your hand upholds me,
I know you love me...

You tore the veil,
You made a way
When you said that 'it is done'

And when the earth fades,
Falls from my eyes, And you stand before me
I know you love me, I know you love me...

"Oh Lord you search me...even when I fail you, I know you love me"...

Psalms 139:1- O LORD, you have searched me and you know me.

Lord how You so faithfully searched me in the wilderness...when I was searching for a reason...You gave me reason to live for..and despite all my failure, all my iniquity, I know you still love me...

"At the cross..where your blood was shed for me..thers no greater love than this.."

Matthew 27:46-Jesus cried out in the loud voice,"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Romans 5:8-But God demonstrated his own love for us in this:While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Oh Lord how can we imagine how painful it was to be separated for God your own father? I can't even imagine how much grief i will hav if I was separated by my parents....it must have been tormenting to be torn apart and drawn apart from God because of the punishment of sin we deserve, but not You....

"You have overcome the grave, Your glory fills the highest place, what can separated me now?"

Romans 6:10-The death he died, he died to sin once for all, but the life he lives, he lives in God

Romans 8:39-neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

If Jesus didn't rise from the grave...then how would us have been forgiven for our self-righteousness?? Yes Lord our flesh still desires to do the wrong thing, but God we have the hope that you died for our sins once and for all..and the life we live...we want to live a life like You, righteous and living in the light of our God.

"You tore the veil, you made a way, when You said that 'it is done'.."

John 19:30-Jesus said"It is finished."With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit

Matthew 27:51-At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom

Literally, the curtain covering the place into the Holy of Holies where only those whose sin has been temporarily atoned for through sacrifices can enter, was reaped in two, so that everyone can experience the presence of God.

God longed for that relationship with us, He didn't want us to present to Him artificial offerings or have Him so high up that no one can reach...but He wants to be in our midst, be our best friend, someone we can rely on 24/7....To be able to rejoice with one another during good times, and persevere together during bad times...thats the intimate relationship He longs for...and thank you Lord for making that way for us to have that relationship with You...

Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"

I know God is constantly waving that gift in front of my family, my friends, everyone. A gift that cost us nothing, but cost Him everything....and God I know it is Your desire that none shall perish and all shall have eternal life...so I trust in your timing God...

I trust in You......and I know You love me...
