Good Friday

The lyrics to this song have greatly impacted me through this Holy Week.  
Remembering the true meaning of the holiday and how it impacts my everyday life.  The bottom line is to run to the cross.  

Lead Me to the Cross
Savior I come
Quiet my soul remember
Redemptions hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost
 
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Lead me, lead me to the cross
 
You were as I
Tempted and tried
Human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin and death
Now you're risen
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost
 
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Lead me, lead me to the cross
 
To your heart
To your heart
Lead me to your heart

Over the last couple of weeks I have been processing through some things going on in my life and decisions that I need
 to make.  I have been faced with choices to make and I am seeking what to do and trying to make the right choices, but 
realized through this song...that I have been seeking the answers from myself and people around me instead of seeking
 for the answers and the foot of the cross.  When Christ is at the center things  are clear and simple.  When the focus is put 
on self things become confusing and muddy.  I am so thankful for the cross and that God gave Jesus life for me.  Once 
again, because of that, I can come to the cross and ask for forgiveness for trying to do things my way instead of seeking 
Christ first.  I pray that as you experience this Easter that you realize again the great gift that we have in the life and death
 of Christ.
