Imagine you being the Creator God, the God of the universe, and then subjecting
yourself to the treatment that the Lord's creation did to Him??? I have to say it
again, "What a God"!
True Beauty from within
When our God takes a life that is lowly
and one who has totally surrendered to his LORD,
there is no limit with what He can accomplish
with such a vessel only His love can afford.
Yes, gone are the pleasures of sin
for now in my life they have no room and no part,
leaving only a desire to be pure and consecrated for Him
and with His love flowing deep in my heart.
Only you now, my Jesus
all of You and please, Lord none of me,
for the price You paid I’m beginning to understand
when You died for me up on that tree.
For You could have chosen an easier road
and because of earth’s sin chose to depart,
but the love You have shown for Your creation that day, Lord
filled up Your holy heart.
So, You went through the pain of Your cross
and now help me to do the same,
my all for You I give You, LORD
and Your Word I must now proclaim.
