Easter
This time of year is special to me, all thru the year i reflect and thank God for sending his son, and thank Jesus for suffering for me and thank you Jesus for the convicting power of the holy spirit.
I accepted Christ in a high school gym in 1972 and i being so young strayed away after years of trying to stay in the center of God's will.
Around 10 years ago my wife and i started attending again, the conviction was almost unbearable, but i think i was afraid of trying to make a commitment.
One morning going to work , i was thinking about this and that and all the sudden in a clear , calm voice i heard " He died for you" i thought yes i know the Easter story how Jesus gave his life, etc, etc..
Then in a not so calm voice but describing it as like a frantic/stern voice i heard "HE DIED FOR YOU".
Those 4 words i had heard all my life , had pierced my heart like never before in a different way and i have been changed ever since.
Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice and what you mean to me.....everything.
Avalon: Everything to me
We're living in uncertain times
And more and more I find that i'm aware
Of just how fragile life can be
I want to tell the world I found
A love that turned my life around
They need to know that they can taste and see
Now everyday I'm praying
Just to give my heart away
I want live for Jesus
So that someone else might see that he is...
Everything to me
He's more than a story
more than words on a page of history
He's the air that I breath
The water I thirst for
And the ground beneath my feet
He's everything
And looking back over my life at the end
I'll go to meet you saying you've been...
You're everything to me
You're more than a story
More than words on a page of history
You're everything to me
You're more than a story
More than words on a page of history
You're the air that I breath
The water I thirst for
And the ground beneath my feet
You're everything to me
Lord, you're everything to me

Re: Easter
Amen! Halleluiah and praise the Lord!
I love it when people share how God literally reaches down and touches their heart. God is awesome and forgiving.
Thank you Jesus for dieing on the cross, for taking my place, my sins, giving me a chance for salvation. Thank you for saving my soul!
Thanks brother gary for sharing this testimony, praise God!

I know who saved my soul and I want this world to know, that I was once blind, once lost, Now I'm blood bought, reconciled to God by the blood He shed on the cross. -Eternal M.o.G.
