His wounds have paid my ransom

I can not come up with words big enough,

 great enough

or powerful enough

to express the emotion from

the church service on Sunday, August 5, 2012.

I will let these song lyrics say it all.

How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the Man upon the cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

Please watch this video from church this Sunday.

At the end you will see a beautiful lady being baptised.

She accepted Christ as her Savior this past week.

Please be in prayer for our church. 

We currently have three other ladies who are searching for answers.

Junko is one of them. 

She was there on Sunday.

After church she told me,

"It was very emotional for me to watch."

I answered -

"For me too!"
