You are my King

I'm forgiven, because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, because You were condemned
I'm 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 honour You
In all I do, to honour You.

You are my King
You are my King
Jesus, You are my King
You are my King.

We had an amazing time of worship at church this morning and this song really spoke to me. It is so amazing that God loves us so much that He gave us His Son so that we can have everlasting life, how sad for the people that do not believe or know Him!

It also made me realise what a big responsibility we have in showing unconditional love to others, because that is the instruction, to love others as God loves us. Not easy at all as we tend to critisize other people very easily and think that we are in some way better than them. I have learned to love my husband, children, friends and family unconditionally, but it is the "unlovable people" that are the challenge.

Overview of the week

I took these photos earlier this week, but never got around to blogging them. So now you are getting them all at the same time! It has been rather a busy week for him, but it ended on an absolute high after the service at church this morning. Richard preached about how we must celebrate the crusifixion as it is something to celebrate as a christian, Jesus dying on the cross so that we can have everlasting life with Him! He really preaches very well and it was the best Good Friday service I have ever listened to. The whole congregation was very excited by the time he was finished and I can't wait for Sunday.

We are having family over for a bring and share a bit later this afternoon. Tomorrow should be reasonably quiet as I am not sure what our plans are yet. On Sunday after church we are driving up to Langebaan, sleeping over and coming back on Monday. It is going to be very nice!

This will be the last time I blog until Tuesday. Have a very blessed Easter!
