Amazing Love/ On My Cross

Amazing Love

I’m forgiven because You were forsaken,

I’m accepted, You were condemned.

I am alive and well, Your spirit is within me,

Because You died and rose again.

Amazing love,

How can it be?

That You, my King would die for me?

Amazing love,I know it’s true.

It’s my joy to honor You,

In all I do, I honor You.

I’m forgiven because

You were forsaken,

I’m accepted, You were condemned.

I am alive and well, Your spirit is within me,

Because You died and rose again.

You are my King

Jesus You are my King

So, you have probably heard that song before, but go beyond the words that you know oh so well, think about it and what it really means. What the story is behind the words, and what they are really taking about and what they mean.

God never had to love you, he chose to. Jesus didn’t have to die on the cross for you, he chose to. God didn’t make him die, he chose to. Because… he loves you! And it’s amazing love! Without God, do you see how messed up we are?

We mess up all the time, and we do things we wish we never did, because we aren’t perfect. Jesus was on this earth, and he was 100% man, but also 100% God. In Matthew 27, it talks about when Judas betrayed Jesus, and he didn’t tell him, and Jesus said that if he wanted to, he could ask God to send him angels to come and save him, but he chose to die that painful death on the cross, for YOU!

We are all sinners, and we all mess up all the time. No one is perfect. And we all need God. But, it’s it just amazing to think about? That God died on the cross all for you? There is a song that I really like by FFH, and it goes like this…

Those were my nails

That was my crown'

That pierced Your hands and Your brow

Those were my thorns

Those were my scorns

Those were my tears that fell down

And just as You said it would be

You did it all for me

After You counted the cost

You took my shame, my blame

On my cross

Jesus took your sins, when he died on the cross for you, and he didn’t have to, HE WANTED to, and because he loves you. He never had to die on that cross for you, but he wanted to, he wanted to one day meet you, and he gave you a passage way to Heaven. He is amazing, and his love really is amazing!

God doesn’t need anything, and he didn’t have to ever create people. He knew they would sin, but he chose to save us, and let us one day meet him. He is so awesome anyone agree? He gave you that way to heaven, because he loves you…

“I don’t need you, I want you!”

He didn’t have to die for you… he didn’t have to take your sins and your shame, he chose to… He doesn’t have to love you, he chooses to, he never had to die that painful death for you, he chose to… because he loves you!
