Of God!

As you know I've said before, here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), today is our Lord's Day.  A day when we worship Him.

As a form of worship, I will share with you some music.

It was written by Charitie Lees Smith and is entitled, Before The Throne of God Above.  Here is a link for you to click on, to listen to and/or sing along:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ6QaZcPphM.  The lyrics are below.

Before The Throne of God Above

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect Plea;
A great high priest whose name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.

My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in Heaven He stands,
No tongue can bid me thence depart.
No tongue can bid me thence depart.


Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect Plea;
A great high priest whose name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.

My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in Heaven He stands,
No tongue can bid me thence depart.
No tongue can bid me thence depart.


When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upwards I look and see Him there
Who made an end to all my sin.


Because the sinless Savior died,
My sinful soul is counted free,
For God the Just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me,
To look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there, the risen Lamb;
My perfect spotless Righteousness,
The great unchangeable I Am,
The King of glory and of grace.

One with Himself, I cannot die;
My soul is purchased by His blood.
My life is hid with Christ on high;
With Christ, my Savior and my God,
With Christ, my Savior and my God.

One with Himself, I cannot die;
My soul is purchased by His blood.
My life is hid with Christ on high;
With Christ, my Savior and my God,
With Christ, my Savior and my God.


Just as the lyrics tell us, I cannot die.  My soul is purchased by His blood.  My life is with Christ on high, with my Saviour and my God.

God told us this, in His Word, the Bible.

Like what we read, in Acts 17:27-28, "That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring."

Yes, everyone needs to seek the Lord.  For, in Him we live, move and have our being:  for we are also His offspring.

My Lord and Saviour loved me so much, that He saved me.  I am His offspring.

Are you?

All I had to do, was to trust in/believe upon our Lord, Jesus Christ, to gain salvation (Acts 16:31).

This is all you have to do.

If you haven't done it yet, then do it... today.  Tomorrow may be too late.


Until next time...
