BECAUSE HE LOVES ME

today i think i will let kevin speak from his heart....(or in this case his pen)....kevin wrote this on july 10, 2004..



on a rugged cross, He died for me. sharp nails driven through His hand and through His ankles. He was scourged unmercifully, and a crown of sharp thorns were forced upon His head. unending pain was what He endured......because He loved me.....the flesh was torn from His body, His blood streaming from His many wounds... He had the power to stop it at any time....but because He loved me so He endured it for me.



He languished on that cross for most of the day. but even as He was on that cross, racked in pain, He still prayed for those who would do such a thing to Him.





when the end finally came He cried. "Father into your hands, I commend my Spirit"



as He died on the cross, a Roman soldier pierced His side with a spear to see if He was truly dead. instead of blood, pure water poured down. and at that moment , a powerful rain poured in from the heavens as if God himself wept for His only begotten son.



His family took Him down and his mother wept for Him as she realized what He had to die

for.



they took Him to a crypt to bury Him. on the third day, they came to cleanse Him, but the stone was rolled aside and the crypt was empty.



He had risen. He had suffered and died for me because He loves me. I am but a sinner with no hope of redemption at all. but He loves me and sacrificed Himself so that I may live in the light of the Father. saved by grace. in spite of all my sins, I AM FORGIVEN.







hoping that all will realize the truth of this letter from my best man.







and until next time.....
