Thoughts of Lent and Easter

I heard this song this morning and was just touched by the lyrics, especially as we draw towards  Easter and remember the sacrifice Jesus made for us.  I cannot imagine how Jesus felt knowing his Father sent him to earth to live and die as one of us.  Jesus told the disciples several times that he was going to have to die and was well aware during his entry into Jerusalem what awaited him.  What an AMAZING LOVE Jesus showed.

"I was dreaming about Heaven, I was standing at the Pearly Gates

We all there And I was so scared in the presence of One so great

I felt so worried and unworthy, I felt like running away

I bowed my head and I turn to go, Then I heard someone say

Father, this one's with me, Part of the family

One of the reasons I died On Calvary

Father, welcome him in I paid the price for him

Father, oh Father, this one's with me. "

(Newsong - This One's With Me.)
