Forgive Me Lord, For I Have Sinned

Here it is Good Friday, the day our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was hung on the cross on Calvary or Golgotha ( place of a skull).  The greatest act of unselfishness ever performed, was performed so that we could have a return trip to our heavenly Father.  You see, no man could take Jesus' life.  He voluntarily laid it down because of His love, unconditional love for you and me.  It truly is a "good" Friday!

Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.  John 15:13 (AKJV)

Being Christ-like

I am a Christian,

but that doesn’t mean I can’t stumble;

but ninety-nine percent of the time

my spirit should remain humble.

I am a Christian,

can you see that in me;

or is it hard to find,

because I don’t have the right mind;

and I’m not truly free.

I am a Christian,

is that something I just say;

or do I put it on display?

I am a Christian,

I must carry my own cross;

and follow Jesus,

I know what I have to do;

and I know He is my boss.

I’m not afraid to pay the cost.

I am a Christian,

is there love in my heart;

am I being a disciple,

if not, I need to start.

I am a Christian,

so you should have heard;

I’m standing on the Word.

I am a Christian,

and I know I’ve been changed;

my mind and life have been Godly rearranged.

I am a Christian,

so my lifestyle should not be a suspense;

in my living for God,

there should be an abundance of evidence.

I am a Christian,

is the song I should always sing;

I am a Christian,

hallelujah to the King!

                                                                                               

                                                                  To God Be the Glory,
