Every morning when Selah and I get up to get ready for the day we listen to music, and today was no different. So we turned on the radio to K-Love and the song that was playing was absolutely perfect for today, it was the song "I Am" by Mark Schultz. It is a song that is played quite often, and often times I unfortunately tune it out. However, today instead of hurrying around trying to get Selah and I ready for church I had to pause for a second. The lyrics tell of an indescribable Savior. So, being that today is Easter Sunday, I thought it fitting. It is the day our Lord and Savior defeated death and rose from the dead. "I am he that liveth, and was dead; and behold I am alive for evermore."
I am reminded of all Christ is to me, although, it should be a daily reminder. He took up my sins and sorrows on the cross, and carried them without burden or regret. He took the pain of the lashings, humility, beatings, mocking, and crucification for me. All of this because He LOVES me. However, now He has risen! He has risen indeed! And I am forgiven for my sins. Praise God!
"He isn't here! He has been raised from the dead, just as he said would happen."
Here are the song lyrics I was talking about earlier:
I Am- by Mark Schultz
I am the maker of the Heavens
I am the bright and morning star
I am the breath of all Creation
Who always was
And is to come
I am the One who walked on water
I am the One who calmed the seas
I am the miracles and wonders
So come and see
And follow me
You will know
I am the fount of living water
The risen Son of man
The healer of the broken
And when you cry
I am your savior and redeemer
Who bore the sins of man
The author and perfecter
Beginning and the end
I am
I am the spirit deep inside you
I am the word upon your heart
I am the One who even knew you
Before your birth
Before you were
Before the Earth (I am)
The universe (I am)
In every heart (I am)
Oh, where you are (I am)
The Lord of love (I am)
The King of Kings (I am)
The Holy lamb (I am)
Above all things
Yes, I am almighty God your father
The risen son of man
The healer of the broken
And when you cry
I am your savior and redeemer
Who bore the sins of man
The author and perfecter
Beginning and the end
I am

Yesterday we went to the Easter egg hunt that our church puts on at a nearby park. Selah couldn't participate, but we still had fun. It was sooooooo cold and windy. Selah's little cheeks got wind chapped, poor girl. But a little lotion and lots of kisses heal it up good!
