Via Dolorosa....Thank You Jesus!!!

This is truly one of my absolute favorite songs by the band Leeland. Via Dolorosa tells the story of the journey of Christ as he walked the Via Dolorosa. Via Dolorosa is latin for grief or way of suffering. Jesus took this journey of suffering being bruised, beaten, spit and mocked so that we may have eternal life. I know you might heard this time and time again and when Christians witness to you they'll recite John 3:16. For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son, for whoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. Lets truly think about that before we overlook it since we heard this time and time again. Jesus suffered for us. He didn't have to He chose to. He knew what was to come since the moment  He came on this earth, He knew what was to come before He came to this earth in human form. Jesus knew the pain and suffering that He would endure, He knew what saving us from eternal death encounter, yet He chose to do it anyway. I don't know about you but that's powerful to me, that leaves me in a state of awe. Just think about it Jesus intentionally suffer for us because He loves us that much. I mean think about it. Isn't that just awesome, beyond the human language! Jesus died for us, Jesus died for me so that my soul and spirit can forever live with Him. That deserves every bit of praise from every part and bone of our body. Jesus is the only one that is sovereign in our lives. Jesus is the only one that deserves our praise. Jesus is the only one...Jesus is the only ONE! Thank you Jesus for saving me. I can never fully express to You my gratitude and appreciation...because You are so much more worthy than I. There are no words to express Your magnitude and Your holiness. Father I forever owe my life to YOU!!!

song of redemption

A beautiful song that tells a story that we all can relate to. Take a listen and immerse yourself deep into the song. I'm sure you'll be surprise how it's like looking into a mirror and starring back at you is your reflection.

tapping into my inner (PINK) =]

Flowers, dresses, makeup, being a princess....every little girl's vice...every little girl except me. I was the nerdy tomboy who was a little shy and stayed to herself growing up.[if you know me now lets just say i'm growing into my girlie side] I wasn't a complete loner, I made friends but I never really developed that bond with a childhood best girl friend. I have a boy best friend since 2nd grade who grew with me and who I'm very much close with...but not having that girl best friend to grow up with...hmmm made me feel less connected with my girlie side.

Tea parties, sleepovers, play dates, and playing princess with my girl best friend was something I secretly wished I had. Watching t.v. shows and girlie movies made me secretly want that. You know to have that girl best friend that I share secrets with and develop a bond that's sooo innocent and genuine. To me that was the coolest thing.

What I guess I'm trying to say is I secretly wish to be a girlie girl [giggles] =] I know not the juiciest of secrets [don't worry I have some pretty juicy secrets that I much rather keep between myself and God and the grave lol] but moving along I always wanted to be a girlie girl even though I appeared to my peers as a tomboy who kept her nose in her books.

Don't get me wrong I adore my "fly by the seat of my pants" nerdy boyish quality =] It's who I am and what makes me quirky, offbeat, and unique. But being feminine and a girlie girl so to speak is something that is a missing part of me that needs some exploration and a little TLC ♥
