Mighty to Save

This will most likely be my last post on this blog. I think I will break down and get Facebook. It seems to be where all the hip people are these days. I will leave this blog by posting the lyrics from a song that was sung at Passion L.A. It is called Mighty to Save, and it was written by Hillsong. Chris Tomlin sung it at the conference.

Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
A kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations

Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is Mighty to save
He is Mighty to save
Forever
Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender

Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus

That is the final word. Grace and peace be to you all.

It is Official

I am going to Passion LA!!!

I just booked my flight, so I am going for sure. I cannot wait. I am so excited. The conference is January 25 and 26. I do not even have to miss any school. If you want to check out the conference details, go to this site. I am going by myself, but I know I will still have a great time. I will also be able to connect with other college believers, which will be great. I am so looking forward for it.

This was taken from the Passion website. This is what Passion is all about. "From the beginning Passion has been rooted in the confession of Isaiah 26:8: “Yes Lord, walking in the way of Your truth we wait eagerly for You, for Your name and renown are the desire of our souls.”*

*This version of Isaiah 26:8 is a combination of the NIV and NASB translations."

In Christ Alone

Worship: Less Sweet, More Powerful

The concert was really incredible. It was a fantastic time of worship. I am so thankful we went. The crowd really came to sing. Chris Tomlin said it was the loudest the crowd has been on this current leg of the tour. We were right up by the stage, and we could hear all the people lifting their voices in worship. Here are some pictures from the concert.

Chris Tomlin singing Your Grace is Enough (obviously)

This is what Chris Tomlin would look like if you were on drugs.

This is Louie Giglio. He spoke in the middle of the concert

Again, this is what Louie Giglio would look like if you were on drugs

Do not do drugs.

We had a great time. I would not hesitate to go again if they came around.

How Can I Keep From Singing?

Tomorrow is the day. I am really looking forward to the Chris Tomlin concert. Pray that we would have a safe trip and that the proceedings tomorrow would be a sweet and powerful time of worship. I will have pictures after we get back. See ya.

I Will Offer Up My Life

I will offer up my life
In spirit and truth,
Pouring out the oil of love
As my worship to You
In surrender I must give my every part;
Lord, receive the sacrifice
Of a broken heart

CHORUS:
Jesus, what can I give, what can I bring
To so faithful a friend, to so loving a King?
Savior, what can be said, what can be sung
As a praise of Your name
For the things You have done?
Oh my words could not tell, not even in part
Of the debt of love that is owed
By this thankful heart

You deserve my every breath
For You've paid the great cost;
Giving up Your life to death,
Even death on a cross
You took all my shame away,
There defeated my sin
Opened up the gates of heaven
And have beckoned me in

I Will Offer Up My Life by Matt Redman

Make It Stop!!!

Right now we are being assaulted by an incredibly offensive odor. Some skunk has decided it prudent to release its essence in the vicinity of our house. It is quite overwhelming. How can something smell so bad? Our olfactories are being completely punished at the moment. Maybe we should go for a drive. The smell is starting to give me a headache. When will it end? I do not know, but hopefully it will be soon.
