About Me

I hope that what I post here and what you read may in some way encourage, challenge, inspire, or simply interest you... The Week 1 - 21 posts are a series dedicated to EXCEL School of Performing Arts Tour 2015. It's impossible to capture the whole experience, but here I choose to share at least one thing I learnt in each week of XLTT15.

Jesus




He didn't just die my deserved death -
He lived the life I couldn't live
Born pure and Holy 
No sin did He commit
Living in obedience
He completely abstained from it
It's a wonder and a joy to know
That because of Jesus, my sin has been dealt with
And yet, I still have responsibility
For how I make my choices
I can't just do whatever I want knowing I'm covered by grace
No I need to love righteousness and hate evil
To become more like Christ and be light to people
Who maybe haven't experienced God's love
Or had the chance to understand truth
My life, how I live, needs to be the proof,
That I truly believe in Jesus as the Son of God
Not just and a good man
Living as a true follower
Not simply a fan of Christ
He was the perfect fit to redeem us
Both man and God displayed in Jesus
Can we take a second to just appreciate, to accept, to breathe in and just realise
How truly blessed, how privileged, we as humans are.
That we, although broken, can be pieced back together
Restored to unity with God both now and forever
Tell me how?
Jesus
He is so good, so great, He is to be so highly praised
So I won't celebrate Jesus just for one day once a year
I'll celebrate Jesus everyday for all to hear
Because what else is there?
In Jesus lies Hope, Freedom, Peace
Things that every single human needs
And I want to be someone who helps people to see that need
To reach out to God, to be set free
To smash down the barriers, get them out of the way
Come to Him and say
I simply need your grace
That's the prayer that I have prayed
My decision to follow Jesus has been made
And that true gift of Christmas is available for you too!
Accepting the offer is all you have to do
That offer's there not because it's Christmas
But just because it is today
So my question is... Will you choose to follow Jesus?
He's the One who saves.
